I have a 1:45 appointment for her, so this is just a "freaking out" post...
DD has been sick w/ what seems like a nasty cold for nearly 2 weeks.(thick mucousy cough) I wasn't too concerned. Then Friday, she woke dh and I up at 4am with a headache so bad she was crying. I gave her some tylonal and took her to bed with us. She had a headache all day and by evening, had a fever of 102.8 (rectally, because I couldn't find our other thermometers) She had a mild fever the rest of the weekend, but by last night, seemed pretty much better.
This morning though, she came to our room at 4am crying that her legs hurt. She hasn't walked since then, it hurts too much. Here's the weird thing...she is ok when she sits and she can crawl! But when she tries to stand, she can't do it. A nurse at the dr. office said to give her Motrin and let her soak in a warm tub. We did and it doesn't seem to have a made a bit of difference.
Oh great, now she said her stomach hurts and she had a loose bm...not diarrhea, but close.
Anyway, I am puzzled and a bit freaked out here...Hopefully the doc will have a clue!
