Guest guest Posted February 6, 2005 Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 Hi Roomies (love that term!!) Quick question regarding strange symptoms...this morning Ellie woke up with a slightly swollen face. Her cheeks are bright red and hot. She has a s-l-i-g-h-t rash on her trunk and head...basically her skin color with tiny, tiny red dots. Anyway, her temp is usually in the 97's and she's been about 99 all day. I've given her ibuprofen and it hasn't done much. Her appetite is low and she isn't drinking a lot, but some. She has been perky and playing, but went to bed tonight without a fight (thank goodness). Any thoughts on what this could be? She isn't complaining of any pain...but her face is concerning me... Any input would be appreciated! Go Eagles!

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2005 Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 Possibly fifths disease? I don't think it is harmful though can be dangerous to anyone who is pregnant (just in case you know anyone who is). Check that out online and see if that fits.
