On Oct.8th my daughter was had a 105.6 fever, said her neck head and back hurts and left shoulder pain. No running nose cough or anything else like that. Took her to the DR. they said she had pneumonia by listening to her lungs. Right lower lobe. Didn't do chest xray. She was given zythromax. I was told to bring her back in 10 to 14 days for follow up. The fever last for 4-5 days then went away. She seemed better although she was still complaing neck and headache and left shoulder pain. Oct 19th she started running 104.5 fever again. No cold, just headache, neck pain, left shoulder hurting. Oct. 20 took her to the DR. he listened to her lungs, she they sounded clear, didn't know what was wrong with her so he ordered and x-ray of her left shoulder and chest along with blood work. Oct 21 same simptoms started with diarrhea. Oct 22 called the dr's office said bloodwork looked good but they hadn't gotten the xray results back yet. Oct 22 pm she slept from 230 pm to 730pm. When she got up she didn't look right very pale couldn't understand what she was saying which was very unusual, so I took her to the ER. They reviewed the chest xray and said that she had pneumonia in her right upper lobe and in the middle of her lung, but her blood work looked fine. CT scan didn't show anything but still doesn't know why her neck and shoulder hurt. The ER Dr. referred her to a pediactric infectious disease Dr. My question is could it be something other than pneumonia and how do you have pneumonia with no cough? One more thing is she will be 5 in Dec. and weighs 33 pounds. She has only gained 8 oz. in a year.
