Chicken pox can start like that.

That has crossed my mind too. The last time she had an infection (about a month ago) there were no signs at all. She was just not herself for about a week - no temp, no pulling at ears....if she stays like this ill def get her checked out in case it's another 'no signs infection'.

They can have sore ears before an infection really sets in and they get a temp. I know a few who've had no temp at all but turned out their ears were infected.

DD1 had Grommets put in last month. The surgeon said her ears were so bad it was like a mix of puss and a gluey like substance had filled her ears. She said she would have had multiple ear infections. Not once has DD1 ever actually complained of sore ears, just that the volume had turned down. I had never taken her to the doctors for an ear infection.
So in saying all that, my first thought would be an ear infection. I remember too when I had on a few years ago it was not so much my ear hurting, but more my head so it makes sense to me that a child may not pull at or hold their ear when there is something wrong. Just be generally upset because their head is hurting. Does that make sense?

Hope she is better today.

Oh no! Thanks for the heads up. She's had the vaccine.....I hope she doesn't still get it! (Funnily enough, I did check her for rashes and the like at the time)
