I&#8217;m off the lymphoma kick (well, for the most part anyway) and now think I have Fifths Disease. Which is just a virus, ends eventually with no lasting issues. So that would be much better than lymphoma. I have all the symptoms and I&#8217;m thinking the rash wasn&#8217;t a reaction to the steroids, but the Fifths rash cause my cheeks got that crazy red. Went back to the doctor today and he really liked my diagnosis- he said that he was planning on testing me for that anyway. So he took another 4 big vials of blood (so I&#8217;ll have lymphoma, Fifths, and be anemic!!) and will test for Fifths among a few other inflamatory illnesses. The rash is totally gone now but my hands, wrists and knees are all kinds of swollen and arthritic feeling. They really hurt. So we&#8217;ll see on Saturday what it is I have. I am hoping for a concrete answer. He&#8217;s testing for Lupus and other auto immune diseases too, since I already have Raynaud&#8217;s syndrome.
