Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Hi, An earlier post got me to wondering about my son's twin sister (he is a patient of Dr. G). They turn 6 tomorrow. She often complains of being too hot or too cold (but has no fever and no other outward signs of illness) and her tummy or chest hurting (if she eats or uses the restroom, she stops complaining, and the chest pain is often first thing in the morning, so I'm wondering if it's reflux - she had it severely as an infant). She also has a fairly new whitish 'streak' on her upper left arm, where her olive pigment has faded, about 5 inches long. Any ideas? I recently read about a pigment change on the back related to yeast, but the article mentioned specifically the lower back. We applied for new medical insurance at the beginning of March, and a glitch means the app is still being reviewed, so the agent advised me against talking to her doctor about any of this for the time being. She is otherwise very healthy and strong, albeit very petite (they were micropreemies, and she had significant health issues related to her lungs and gut during their first 3 years, but her issues were resolved by age 4). She eats well and has a great disposition. Thanks, Kristy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
