First time posting. Looking for any a&e staff/ nurse /Paediatric advice please. My daughter is 7. Has the odd sore throat but have always been told it’s viral. She’s never had antibiotics in her life, I’m not normally an overly worrried Mum until last night. Last week she had a sore throat, high tempt etc. Gave her the usual calpol and rid it out thinking no point of going to docs unless she gets worse. She was feeling better for a couple of days then Friday morning woke up with a really sore head, facial pain, stiff neck and wobbly on her feet. Took her to docs and was told she has a bacterial throat infection and prescribed penicillin. From 4am she then started severe stomach pains and diarrhoea. This is still ongoing every hour or so for nearly 24 hours. She hasn’t ate a thing since Friday morning. Taking sips of water only because I’m forcing her to and does not want to get out of bed. It takes a lot to make her upset and she’s always been a tough wee cookie but these pains have her screaming and crying. Called nhs Saturday morning. Finally got back to us in the afternoon and we got an appointment for our of hours at 11:30pm. Ended up going early as her pain was so bad. The docs checked her over and said she looks too ill for any viral infections and he thinks she has scarlet fever. She has no rash at all. I asked him serval times what I can do for her stomach but he said nothing and that we’d need to ride it out and to continue taking the penicillin. I asked if it could be a reaction to the medicine and he said it couldn’t be ruled out. I’m now home and really worried. AIBU to take her up for the third time or even bypass my local hospital and take her further afield to the sick kids hospital in the city centre. They have there on A&E department. Our local hospitals children ward is closed at the weekends. Will I be wasting the staffs time? I can’t help thinking something is really wrong but tonight’s doc doesn’t seem to think so.
