Hi there
I think I'm probably being paranoid, but where better to be so than here
My 22 month daughter has been diagnosed with HMS/EDS type III (due to hypermobility, joint pain, exhaustion etc) but due to my lupus we are keeping a 'close eye' her. One of the things that they asked in the appt was does she have an unexplained high temperature often. I didn't answer it properly I think but basically, the answer is yes. After two busy days (mainly a 4hr hosp appt
) she yesterday had a fairly high temp and was very tired but no cold or anything, and is eating ok (just like me in a flare!). No one else in the family has had a bug recently. She also has mouth ulcers.
Do you think I should be worried? My lupus didn't really appear until I was 11 so don't know about this age. Should I contact the doctors or just keep a record? They told me there was no point doing a blood test for ANA yet as she's too little for the results to be conclusive.
Slightly worrying or paranoid mum? What do you think?
