Weight loss and tiredness

Someone calm me down I’m stressed out. At the doctors tomorrow with my 6 year old for the following reasons:

No weight gain since last summer and actually a mild decrease (using same scales)
Increase in height so dropped percentiles and now classed as under weight.
Quite tired and sleep more than DD used to
Still running around and playing but definitely less energy
Occasional rash on face after eating
Does bruise easily and always has

It’s probably all fine and just anemia but bloody google goes from anemia to food allergy’s to colon IBD issues to even cancer.

google will say pretty much anything is cancer if you Google long enough!
think it’s good you’re taking them just to put mine at ease but all these would point to some anemia and that’s easily treated.
