DD2 is 2 years old, and been being sick since yesterday morning at 6am, and still doign it. She wont eat a thing and fluids are coming striaght back up. Her temp is 39.8 and has come down a little with a fan on her but meds are being sicked up too. Shes had a bath, and is laying on sofa in just nappy and a fan on. Thing is she has not moved all day, is dozing on and off, hating being touched and saying very little.
We saw GP last night about sickness and he said bug but im worried about how sleepy and dozy she is.

her skin is very dry and has patches of skin that now look red and sore.

Yes I would.

I would she may be really dehydrated and need fluids

phone nhs direct, they will probably send you to a&e

she probably needs some fluids quickly

poor little thing

I would say A+E from what you have written

good luck x

Are the red patches of skin raw looking?

PS sounds like needs checking out

She sounds very dehydrated, get her to A&E.

GP has said to bring her in at 6.30pm and they are right behide A&E so heading off in a sec. Said red patches look raw and her eyes are all red blood shot from being sick

Aw, poor thing! Hope she gets better soon x

any news?

lisad123 dd2 has been kept in hospital overnight

will update when i know more

Thanks for the update misdee
Hope she gets better soon, she didn't sound too well.
Fingers crossed she hasn't got a skin infection on top of being dehydrated

her glands were all up, but looks like they will be sending her home.

good

home now. The GP sent us straight to A&E where we waited for hours with DD2 pretty much passed out on the chairs. They finally saw us about 11pm, where 3 doctors then all got thier knickers twisted as all if DD2 lypth nodes where swollen and they wanted to do tests. Did bloods whech showed infection and then they could decide if they needed to scan her so agreed to wait for specialist in the morning. He said all ok and we are home with DD2 back on the sofa but not being sick. Thanks ladies

Scarlet fever? sounds like it.

what was / is the infection. Is she on AB's now??

lots of sympathy for the being in hospital by the way.

they dont know where the infection is and they havent given us AB, as they think its viral infection. Shes still very sleepy, and being sick

if she gets worse again, take her back. I have had that with DD3 once, and they missed her having tonsilitis and a wee infection!!

hope she does get better tho.

def not wee infection or tonsilitis as they checked. Just made me that 3 different doctors couldn't work out if her lynpth nodes were a concern and then this mornings doc just kinda waved it away iyswim.
One doctor last next wanted to see her in a few weeks to check nodes, but told now its not needed

sounds very confusing, am not surprised at the face.

how is she today??

she is still a little sleepy and not eating but no temp but keeps crying and saying ouch, just dont know where

We've possibly got something similar - my duaghter also 2 was sick three times the Saturday before last. Wasnt too bad - quite sleepy. Husband and son promptly came down with it too. However last Saturday (i.e a week later) she started being sick again (after about 3 days of normal-ish health) - Sunday she was asleep pretty much all day and night. Diarrhea and vomiting on Monday. Yesterday OK, more diarhhea and vomiting today.

Is there some major bug going round? It seems to go away and then come back with avengence!
