I think my kid has Measles...

[Ja Rhule]

Last week he had a runny nose, then caugh, then fever and last night he came back home from daycare covered in red bumps all over his body...  We took him to doctor on Tuesday and doctor said he's ok... apparently doctor missed all the red flags and misdiagnosed my kid.  We're taking him back to doctor today.

 

The only place he could of got it is daycare...  Looking at the chart below, it looks like it's an outbreak...  Most people get vaccines at 1 and 4 and should be ok.  Kids under 1 year old are danger of getting this crap.  Add North Carolina to this list.

a telltale sign of measles is red and white spots on the insides of his cheeks and maybe tongue. does he have those?

Daycare is the most disgusting place in the world and babies are extremely nasty. I can go a decade without getting sick then be near a baby for one hour and be near death the following weeks.

Not measles... Some other viral infection. They don't know what.

Daycares are petri dishes with cartoons.

Have them test him for strep throat. I know it sounds strange, but as a child I had an allergic reaction to strep throat and my symptoms were exactly those and initially the docs had no idea what it was.

Agree with this post. As a kid i had strep throat atleast 5 times and with each one came a red rash that covered my chest (small red bumps everwhere) making me itch. Eventually it would lead to me  having a sore throat, fever, and coughing. Only real treatment is antibiotics. It's one of those things that your own immune system has to fight.

You should consider living in a bubble.

Looks like my kid completely recovered from whatever he had.

Wait two or three days. You'll have what he had 10x worse.
