Thanks for taking the time to explain this to the list. I find it

all very confusing but you have the ability to put in terms that I

can understand (almost) . I still feel that my problem is caused

by my chronic, mild Graft Versus Host Disease although my

dermotologist denies it. However, he made that decision by visual

examination only. It seems to me that GVHD 'IS' an autoimmune

disorder. Would like to know your opinion. I also have fybromialgia

as well as some permanent hair loss which have been diagnosed

as " autoimmune " . GVHD is so rare that most docs are not familiar

with it. Unfortunately a trip to 's Hopkins for a true diagnosis

is out of the question.
