http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kawasaki_disease Explained well in wiki.......I can't give a better description. It is a complex of symptoms ie : it is a syndrome........You need not have all symptoms of a syndrome to say that you had it. You might have at least satisfied the criteria to put you in that category who had the disease. Was you treated.......are you having any cardiac problem associated......when did you get the d/s.
i still deal with my lymph nodes swelling red eeyes peeling of the genital, foot, and hands, the pain in my joints and once in a while i get really bad pain in my chest
the classic symptoms of kawasaki's disease are : 1. fever for more than 5 days and at least 4 of the below : 2. strawberry tongue 3. conjunctivitis 4. enlarged cervical lymph nodes 5. generalized rash 6. changes in hands and feet the concern with kawasaki's disease is the development of coronary artery aneurysms later on that could lead to heart attacks or sudden death.
