Guest guest Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 Hi all - (This question is cross-posted)... My 5 year old just started complaining about seeing spots. He's not too great at describing it to me, but I do know that they're colorful, they're worse when it's dark, and it also appears that they are interfering a bit in seeing things and some of the spots appear pretty large (I asked him to try to draw them). They were scaring him. (I told him they were angels and he's not scared now, so he's talking about them a bit better now instead of refusing to talk because he was scared.) Anyone have any idea what this could point to or have similar experiences w/their kids? I get spots when I have visual migranes but they're not bright and multicolored. He's also complaining about migrating joint pain, starting around the same time. Before that, he was complaining of headaches on top of his head (hasn't complained lately and I don't ask 'cause I don't want to implant complaints). Before that was the 5 months of fatigue and 100.0 fever daily w/ loss of eye contact and changes to speech and cognitive function. I think it's probably something inflammatory going on but there is no concern from local doctors who just want to diagnose him w/Asperger Syndrome (which makes me angry that they just want to say he's regressing into this at 5 years old when he did NOT have some of the issues he's dealing with now). I'll shut up now or end up high on a soapbox lol. Anyway, I'd appreciate any input.
