hi all--

dd has a rash on her feet and calves like little red pimply dots. she had a fever two nights ago (i didn't take her temperature) and she's been a little extra fussy and clingy and not eating much (tho she just finally ate 1/2 a banana). her fever is gone, but i can't find anything searching for these symptoms.

sound familiar to anyone?

tx!

it's up to her knees and on her hands. hmm.
Sounds like it might hand foot and mouth disease (coxsackie virus)?

If she's still not eating, look and see if she has sores in her mouth or throat. My ds was miserable with HFM, wouldn't eat, wouldn't nurse.
