In the sources there are unnecessary (cautionary?) sharps before A at the beginning of bar 99 and a in bar 100. In A one can see that Chopin initially wrote a few other sharps of this type (in bars 92 and 101-102), which he then deleted. In the main text we do not give these signs.

FES includes a cautionary  next to c2 in the L.H. – most probably written with Chopin's hand.
