My granddaughter lillian just turned five
and has been ill for many months...We have
had her to the doctors and hospital
many,many,many times to find out what is
the matter...They have tested her for any
and all kinds of cancer and known
disease's... Her doctor thought perhaps
she had lupus but left state and left us
with no answers..Her symptoms are as
follows...
Severe headaches consistantly
constant low grade fever (99.5-102.7)
lack of appetite or constantly hungry
(stomach pains)
night sweats (drenches clothing and bed)
loss of energy or high boost of energy
neck glands swollen all the time (other
glands swell also at times)
liver and spleen are swollen (does not go
back to normal)
loss of balance (gets light headed or
dizzy)
hallucinations (speaks of death or dead
people, seeing unknown family members to
her that are deceased )
sensitive to bright light
urination problems (sometimes hard to
urinate)
complains of body itching all the time
breaks out in hives for no apparent
reason
sore throats
facial swelling (periodically)
breathing difficultys (occasionally)
constant thurst (always thirsty..Drinks at
least 12 or more 8oz glasses of
water,juice a day)
we were told that crohn's desease could be
what the problem is??? She was a very
healthy child (no heath problems) not even
a common cold until 6 months ago...Does
anyone out there know of any known
deseases that could cause her to be so
ill???? Please anyone with any kind of
answer is welcome...We have been thru it
all...If you have any information you can
share e-mail me at belovi
d1958@yahoo.Com or her mother at elb_babyluv@yahoo.Com...Thank you
for your time...

I would have her checked by a
rheumatologist to see if she has
fibromyalgia.
