what is it?!

((oh and if it helps its in the beginning of the Masque of the Red Death by Edgar Allen Poe, i know its an illness, i just cant htink of what its called.))

Answer 1

The plague?

Answer 2

from what i've found it may be based on TB, although i, like you, remember it as something else.

its not TB, as those are def. not the symptoms of TB.

its likely not an actual illness at all, just a story or dramatization of the many horrendous illnesses circulating when edgar allen poe was alive and writing.

Answer 3

omg you totally freaked me out...I thought that YOU had it and I was gonna type in "call 911 fast!" ...i feel hella stupid haha

ya sorry i dont know.
