HSP - has anyone else's child had this?

[earthtomummy]

DS has had HSP which started up 4 wks ago. It just seems to keep on flaring up and re-emerging when we think it has gone. I'm just interested to see if anyone else has experience of HSP and how it affected their child.

Is that Henoch something Purpura????

If so my boys have this (age 3 and 1 ) They were in hospital last week to be diagnosed and have there urine etc checked and we were told to bring them back if they got upset stomachs or stopped weeing so much (they got the poorly tums) so we went back and they were checked again.

We were basically told just to keep an eye on it as it usually clears up its self but there can be side affects such as kidney problems if it gets really bad.

The boys in themselves wernt to bad although whiney and not sleeping properly.
