My 3 year old DD has been unwell for about 5 days, slight temp. very lethargic, sleeping loads during day (never has a daytime nap normally) and looking very pale. Chickenpox is in our area so half wondered if she was beginning to get that. Sure enough today she has developed a rash - but I don?t think it is chickenpox - does anyone have any ideas of what it might be. Oddly she seems a bit brighter today. The rash seems only on her face (begun yesterday, very pale pink flattish small spots) today it is very pronounced pink/deep pink spots, def. not red or blistering. I can see no other spots any where other than on the side of her neck, poss. behind ears. She has had a stuffy cold type thing going on as well with a nasty cough - could be related? Does this sound familiar? Do you think I should bother a doctor or NHS direct? Please give me some advice..
