So DD1(6) was unwell with a vomiting bug 2 weeks ago DD2 (1) caught it and vomitted for 24 hours been fine for a week, today woke up to find her in a pool of sick high temps all day and a really sore looking tongue.
so i took her to OOH drs as she was really upset and rubbing her tongue and he said Scarlett fever, now googling and she doesn't have red cheeks she has a mild rash that looks like heat rash and fades under pressure. So I'm not sure the dr was right my instinct is telling me it's not that but I'm not a dr. So do I see my own gp in the morning? or just wait it out?

Sorry long and boring And she's not actually that unwell

And my grammar is shocking.

Mine didn't have major rash with SF. It was surprisingly pale-just looked like major goosebumps over their back-I expected it to be bright red with the name! But it definitely was SF (confirmed by bloods if I remember right)
