I'm a hypochondriac by nature and always think the worst when it comes to mine and my families health....
9 days ago today my 7 yr old daughter started waking in the middle of the night with leg pain, we figured it was growing pains and moved on...A few nights later she woke up again, this time with hip pain, and last night woke up with arm pain, now neck pain....It's definitely the worst at night but does bother her somewhat during the day as well..
She is also fighting a chest cold and strep throat at the moment, so is dealing with a low-grade fever, some fatigue and all the other symptoms a cold comes with....has a decreased appetite but still eating fairly well
Tuesday morning I brought her to Emerg and the doctor wasn't overly concerned as she doesn't "look sick" and the pain subsides with advil/Tylenol, but I am still freaking out...This morning she woke up with 4 or 5 little dots on her elbow and she doesn't know how they got there.....I am soooo scared it's petachie (will try and attach a photo)
