Poor DD (18 months) had very high temps (41.5 degrees c), cough, runny nose, general malaise, sleeping loads, and generally v unhappy bunny symptoms for 4 days.
Her temp then came down again, and at the same time she developed a flat red rash of smallish spots all over her body and on her face 2 days ago, which is beginning to fade today.
Doc has said swine flu or scarlet fever; has anyone else's DC had a rash with SF, or is it more likely to be scarlet fever?
(And therefore do we have the SF fun still to come...?)
