I recently found out that I developed "rose thorn disease." A systematic fungus. However, I had the sores and ulcerations for over 9 months before I went to see my GP. He put me on Itraconazole for the next 3 months and will follow up at the end of the 3 months to see if there is any progress. I also have to go for monthly blood testings to ensure the medication is not affecting my liver. Prior to taking the medication my base blood test showed my globulin level at 2.0, this month the globulin level is down to 1.7. He wants to do further testing to see why these levels are decreasing. All that I have read on the Internet regarding decreased globulin levels are quite frightening. My question is can the "rose thorn fungual disease" be a factor in the low blood protein levels?
