I recently had a Pyoderma gangrenosum rmoved from my neck, I read somewhere (but can't remember where) that PBC could cause these horrible things. My daughter has PBC and keeps saying I should get tested as it can go from Mother to Daughter....

Does anyone have any suggestions....

They sound horrible, hope you have recoverd from the removal.If your daughter has PBC then chances are you MAY have it too/ If you feel any of the common symtoms then perhaps yes be tested. Does she have a good consultant? May be go with her on her next appointment and have a chat to the consultant and then decide. I cant say either way but in a funny way i am glad i know now, i can put the fatigues, etc etc down to PBC and not think i am mad..Good luck x
