I am, anaesthetic registrar.Its not my area, but I think theyre still a problem and actually getting worse (spreading, increasing frequency). They certainly make the news more frequently. Despite the fact theres a syndrome Bairnsdale ulcer down here, apparently theyre a frequently forgotten diagnosis. So it wouldnt surprise me if the same illness would be far from front of mind elsewhere in the world.
Please do this! I have met someone who has had similar complaints and they were not able to get a definitive diagnosis.Also, Schnooks, are you a physician in Australia? I understand Buruli ulcers had some what became an issue in 2018 there. While it isn't an issue here in the States, I wonder if this contributes to misdiagnosis? Thanks for your input!
