Yes, I've had Erythema Nodosum, sooooo incredibly painful. I had it for almost a year where the old nodules went away and new ones popped up all over my legs, from what I understand it pretty rare. My rhuemy said it was from birth control and my gynecologist said I wasn't on a strong enough pill to cause it. I went off birth control and finally ended up on a higher dose of pred to calm it down. I hope it gets better soon.
