Hi! I messed up when registering for the site and it says I am pre-health, however I am M2. I'm interested in derm and am doing a project currently on fixed drug eruptions but need some guidance as I can't seem to find a coherent answer anywhere else. If an adult female presents with spontaneously appearing/disappearing lesions on the inner labia and associated dysuria that began 4 years ago but only recur every several months, last for 24 hours or less, and appear as one lesion at a time but the IGg blood test for HSV is negative...could this be an FDE? Let's say the woman started taking an anticonvulsant, for example (known for reactions) and the first eruption occurs 6 months-1 year after first taking the drug, is this possible to investigate? I wanted to explore drug eruptions beyond SJS and focus more on their occurrence in people who take the offending drug regularly/on a daily basis as opposed to occasional short-term antibiotics. Is this viable for a case study?
