: supposed bites) it was Sweet's Syndrome?

: Also, any had bone marrow procedure to help? And if so, any good results?
: Please help. very confused.
: thanks, Cathey A.

Yes - I was thought to have been bitten by a spider. Weird. I've never heard of bone marrow treatment. I can't imagine the pain that would cause. I currently take plaquinel for the arthritis effects, achromycin for the skin problems.

I rarely have flare ups, but when I do, they seem to be brought on by stress. Not sure if that's what you were looking for. :)
