    Ummmm hmmm you could be correct Liz... am I getting my "m" stuff confused? Bugger!! Either way Leash... like Liz said, go with your gut and I'm sure that the doc sounds like being on the mark and has found several infections which need treating... so Jazzy is probably very uncomfy.

    Could be getting the "m's" mixed up, I haven't heard of the pressure test, but meningitis normally has vomiting involved though. A UTI and ear infection would be sufficient to make a toddler feel like crap on its own.

    How is Jazzy this morning?

    Oh no poor Jazz. Hope she's feeling better today.

    I had meningitis when I was little and remember mum talking about the pressure test (later on but related to the meningitis). Best way is to press a glass against the skin and look to see if the spots disappear.

    She is ok, temp was up overnight but came down today, hasn't gone back up but now she is grabing at her mouth and crying so I guess she is hurting a bit

    Oh and the stiffness was joints rather than neck/spinal column, so all good. Well not GOOD but not serious, just the usual sickness aches and pains.
