The doctor said that it looks like either HF&M or Chicken Pox
He took a sample form one of the blisters and is going to let us know on Monday if it's the pox.
He gave us a fact sheet on both and neither really seem to fit. He doesn't have any of the other sypmtoms for HF&M and the way the spots have spread is totally opposite to what they "should". I guess we'll just have to wait until Monday to find out *Sigh*
He said DF has to stay away from DS until at least Monday because Chiken Pox in adults can be nasty and DF hasn't had them before Gonna be a fun weekend

ETA - I've got a sore throat now... ARGH!!

[Beautiful Disaster]

Ohhh how horrible. Poor Mr I
I havent had them either argggg think they are going around at the moment

[Calluna]

you don't get it Kylz.

ETA - Just noticed you've only got 150 days left

M2R - doc said that was Mumps?? 'cause I asked that too.

[Eenee]

could be impetigo aswell, hard to know without seeing them.

[Calluna]

I googled. Remind me not to do that in future. For any skin thing. YUCK!

It didn't look like the impetigo, more like the HF&M and chicken pox. they look pretty much the same. The doctor did say that ATOL of viral illnesses present with this kind of rash which makes it hard to diagnose.

Oh hun fingers crossed he just gets better quick.
