What could be up with dd? Achey arms and tummy, no appetite

Hello, I wonder if any of you can suggest anything.

She has been complaining of tummy ache for about a week now and has had hardly any appetite. She hasn't had a good meal since last saturday. iirc.

She has picked and nibbled at teeny amounts since then. Even not managing biscuits and Mcdonalds!
Her poo's have been slightly lighter than usual (but she hasn't eaten much atall) and almost gluey and elasticy in texture. Frothy maybe.

She has also said her arms ache
She has been more floppy and thumb sucky than usual but I suppose she has no energy due to the little food she's eaten. Inbetween floppy moments she's happy ,talking, playing etc,
She has been drinking lots.

I could go to the docs but I am reluctant as we go soooo much. Seems to be every week for someone. She went last tuesday when she had a very sore throat and gp said she had a throat virus, I took ds for an ear infection this monday, I went too and was told I may have a grumbling appenix. Plus ds2 has been a lot with his breathing since he was hospitalised for bronchiolitis. On top of all that the older 2 have asthma so we go for that

Should I take her again even though she has no temp, or just wait some more and see if she improves??

TIA
