Ugh! if its not one things its another. Daughter came out in strange spots on her foot yesterday morning, by yesterday afternoon she had them up her legs and some on her arms. This morning she has more on her arms and legs. some on her bum and face and couple on her hands. Diagnosis? well i put it out there for facebook as I didn't have a clue. I thought it might have been bites, other chicken pox, and other viral infection.
Obviously as a mum I was bothered and kept checking on her, gave her anti histamines and checked how she was going on! Decided to go to the pharmacy this morning before swimming to see if they could think of anything. First thing she thought was chicken pox but when i said she had, had them before she immediately said no then. Because she said it was very hard to get it twice, though i know of a family member who has had them twice! So ok told to go to the walk in centre, so she misses swimming again :( Went and waited 20 mins ish for triage where she took one look and said chicken pox or viral.. but said no point waiting the two hours ish for treatment. ( yes i know long!) not much we could do especially since she was on anti histamines already. just watch for any illness or if she struggles breathing etc. Which I would do anyway!!
Thinking though it is more viral as she is ok in herself, maybe a bit tired. Yes she is itching but there are none on her torso at all. Which i find odd personally. ( checked her bed in case we managed to bring fleas home though no pets or anything. ) nothing in there. So I think it is a waiting game, her spots are not blister like, not like normal cp so more viral but not sure if she should have some sort of anti biotics or something for them or if i should be doing something extra?! not a clue! Just see how we are and at the end of the day if little man comes out with them then we know its cp!! Feel so sorry for her though, her immune system must be a bit crap for her to get this. Not that she gets coughs and colds but its being attacked all the time with eczema it struggles hen it has something else to deal with! dread to think the onslaught of Eczema or asthma or both we are going to have to deal with.
Sorry fretting mummy here! but she has managed to eat alot today so must be alright. As we went to my mums for a little family party as we've got several birthdays all together so one joint party, was nice to see the little ones playing and big uns being behaved! And for my grandma who had a stroke a couple months back to being more herself! ( we very nearly lost her :()
Tomorrow I am commanded to do moshi monster pop cake mix that my mum bought for my daughter to do.. so i need to go and buy some eggs and we say goodbye to daddy for a few days. And i'm going to find it hard. Which sounds silly but we haven't been apart except for hospital stays( mine pregnancy) in all the time we've been living together! Which is about 7 years. :( Hopefully he can get wifi whilst he is down on his work thing so we can still talk. ... going to go and mope whilst i watch the rest of Harry Potter!
