Sweet Syndrome
Hi, I had sweet syndrome after my first Neulasta shot after my first Dacogen treatment in Feb 2010. Mine was a rash with raised sores...luckily mine was not itchy. It took a couple of months for most of it to go away, and a year or so for some of the sores on my arms and legs - at that point, they were under the skin and didn't have any scabs or anythiing - just a nuisance, not painful or anything. 2 1/2 years later I can tell where two were - you wouldn't notice them. My doctor told me that it happens when the body gets too many white cells all of a sudden.
