sorry that header was shocking

dd had high temp and rash thursday, gave calpol..it went within hour.
Yesterday we held our christmas party, dd was saying she was freezing, wouldnt play and wanted to be held, got her home temp was 39, and rash was back all over her middle.
over night temp went down but rash remained?..woke this morning, still rash the same, temp fine..so off on normal day keeping eye on rash..went ot friends tonight for half hour, dd very grumpy, got home temp sky high, rash now totally covering her body, face feet.
already rang prime care thid morn, told viral infection, keep and eye, rang them back tonight told me she could go in but wouldnt be till 10.40pm(she's 3 years old! and this morn they said theyd get her seen straight away iff i felt i had to ring back?!)
gave her medised, laid her on sofa all dressed ready to take her later on and she was so tired and tetchy..temp went right down, but rash still everywhere?

its like a red mottled efect and feels awful and bumpy/lumy to touch, she says shes freezing and shivering one minute but is red hot, then she says she's too warm??
shes asleep in bed now, dont want to wake her at 10.30 if shes settled as good nights sleep may help if it is viral, but dont want to leave incase its not..help!!!!

oh and dont know if it was cos i was putting on calomine tonight?..but she kept saying her arms hurt?(around the joint of elbow??)

scarletina and tonsilitus
carletine they say is milder form of scarlet fevere, mainly associated with the rash.
gave penicillin and paracetamol..poor lamb, last two days at school too, christmas party today and father christmas tomorrow..cos shes okay in herself when temp drops back down, she cant understand why she cant go..so on way back from doc we bought a million decorations and we're doing the playroom out even more than it was! and if shes ok this afternoon, ill get the disco ball out and well all have a boogy
