yes my daughter had it at 4.8 - hope your tests were negative (I was told there was no definitive diagnostic test btw - this was 2 years ago).

my friend's little boy had this 18 mos ago. really nasty at the time but he none of the long term effects. he was just 2 at the time.

iirc if it is, the dc will pick up very quickly once the right treatment is commenced - apparently every parent says 'it's a miracle' as it's so fast...

very scary though. fingers crossed x
