I hope no one minds me asking as I am so worried suddenly.
I joined a thread recently about bruising which DS has had for some time that has surprised me- small bruises in odd places on his back for example and his legs are always covered though he jumps around constantly. He once had such an angry bruise on his chest I took him to the GP as was completely sure he hasn't hurt himself there (he's 3 &with me full time).
Over the last few weeks his appetite has changed- used to eat everything and eat like a horse and he's gone off nearly everything he liked & tonight he simply said he feels sick every day. He still looks good weight-wise as his tummy big.
He also has joint pain in his knees which has had for months and when I stressed this to the GP (not the being sick bit as he's only started saying that for last 3 days) he said to come back in 3 months if not better- but he's already had it longer than that and i explained it stops him running (GP suggested calpol).
Am I right to be worried as suddenly from wondering what's going on I feel very worried this isn't normal? Would you return to the GP?
Thank you so much if anyone can advise
