DD (8 yearss old) came home from school yesterday with a rash that looked like hives, it went down and we forgot about it.
Today she has come home with an even worse rash all over, mainly face and arms.
Took her to gp this evening and she said that it looked like an allergic reaction.
This eve she had a dry cough (nothing serious) and fell asleep during her story (this never happens)
Gp was pretty unconcerned about her, but I am really worried.
Could there be something at school she is allergic to? It is not her lunch as she has packed lunches.
Also she had her MMR booster(we missed it out so were catching up) and that was just over 3 weeks ago. Doc was quite adament that it wasn't a reaction to that but I am not sure as she hasn't ever had a rash like this before and nothing in her environment has really changed.
Any help or advice much appriciated
