Tom is so unwell.
He had a temperature of 39 last night. We gave him Medised in the night but it was still up at 38.4 this morning.
We took him to the doctor by which time he was covered in red dots. He had cold hand and feet so the doctor suspected meningitis.
We got referred to a paediatrician in A&E who was lovely. He said Tom has a throat infection with a non-specific viral rash.
Has anyone else come across this?
We now have antibiotics and are to alternate between Calpol and Nurofen.
I'm a bag of nerves - haven't eaten all day and feel sick with worry.
The rash is so frightening looking.
I've just put him to bed but we're preparing ourselves for a long night.
