Hi
Ive a 7 month old daughter who last Wednesday suddenly started screaming in pain. It was soon obvious she had severe tummy pain. That night she developed a fever. I took her to the hospital the next morning as she was still screaming in pain, we couldn't even touch her.
She was transferred to a children's hospital with querie severe bowel problems. Scans and MRI ruled that out but it came back with disteneded bowel and some free fluid. On the 3rd day of pain she had about 4 spots of non blanching red rash but all her bloods came back ok except CRP was slightly raised. She had blood in her urine. She suddenly then couldn't move her legs due to severe pain, everyone was very concerned. Then randomly the next day she stopped crying in pain and the red marks were subsiding. She continued to get better and by the 4th day she was completely back to normal. She had completeled the course of antibiotics and sent home.
No one can tell me what happened to her. It's really worried me. She's always unwell with chest infections now this. After doing my own research I found out about HSP.
Could this be what my baby had even though the duration in total was only 4 days and she never really had a rash that covers her? Could she still get the rash now? She started with an eczema rash on her face yesterday but that could be anything I guess.
Any info would be great, thank you.
