I suffered from this disease in Montreal, Canada at the age of 5. It came on as Scarlet Fever. Eventually entire portions of my limbs were 'peeling'. The skin on my tongue peeled towards the end - that was neat...

Nothing quite like being an early case for that particular city and having doctors ask an 8 year old if they can photograph him...

Edit: What's really interesting is that a friend's cousin, only a few blocks away from where we were living was apparently diagnosed with the same thing only a few months prior.
