Im hoping I’m going crazy but any ideas on what could be up with my 6 year old?

  • not gained any weight in 6 months
  • seems more tired than peers
  • loose bowel movements occasionally
  • skin rash occasionally on cheeks
  • occasionally mottled skin

We have a doctors app end of this week just not sure if we should we going to the doctors or I making this into a bigger issue than it is

Anaemia would be my first thing to check off the list. I’ve had a not dissimilar situation with my DS who has had a post viral condition now for a year. Blood tests aren’t pleasant but they should give you and idea as to general health.
