Still's disease

Still’s disease is a form of arthritis that is characterized by high spiking fevers and evanescent (transient) salmon-colored rash. Still’s disease was first described in children, but it is now known to occur, much less commonly, in adults (in whom it is referred to as Adult-onset Still’s disease, AOSD). >>

• Extreme fatigue
• High fevers to 104 degrees F (41 degrees C)
• A faint salmon-colored skin rash
• Swelling of the lymph glands
• Enlargement of the spleen and liver
• Sore throat.
• Sometimes inflammation of the lungs or around the heart
