CS also affects the kidneys. As a form of vasculitis it's very close to WG in that it can go anywhere, it's just that it generally starts in the lungs first, whereas we tend to start in ENT/kidney areas first.

You'd know if CSS was on the list of possibilities if your eosinophils (type of WBC associated with allergic reaction) were elevated.
You can have high eosinophils with other disorders. (Eosinophil count is part of a routine blood count.)

Precisely. That's what my rheumy checked for.

Sangye and Jan, I came to think of a possible solution: Little cat (Saboteuse), very soft fur, like a chinchilla and sheds a lot, comes up on puterdesk for a lovesession each morning when I play my wake-up silly games. I do not like animals in my face, but this one strokes my cheek with her body. It might be that that is too much for slumbering allergies so will start pushing her away.
