My DS1 is very pale, it seems all the time at the moment. To the point where a few friends have commented on it. He doesn't seem to get tired at school, but if we are out doing a lot of walking he will start to complain about tiredness (although he's never been a great walker). He's not the fastest at running, etc, but that doesn't bother me.
He is mildly asthmatic - we use the brown preventer at the moment each day to avoid winter coughs, but we rarely have to use the blue. He is allergic to a few things - raw egg, sesame, cats/dogs; we re-homed our cats last year due to this. He had terrible, terrible itchy eyes last spring which I believe was due to a rape seed field next to his school, which he had just started.
I know allergic children can be pale, with dark circles under the eyes. But I'm going to make a GP's appointment anyway. Other than anaemia, is there anything else I should be aware of before I go to GP? Anything I should be asking for (blood tests, etc)? Could it all be down to allergy and if so, what else can I do?
Thanks!
