What the hell is it???

posted 4th Nov
So, I posted last night about Brandon, my seven year old, randomly coming down with something. His feber of 102 broke sometime in the middle of the night, at around 2 am and didn't come back all day. Until about two hours ago. He's back to 102, has a small cough, but what gets me are his eyes. They are beat red and oozing. What is that from??? I've never seen it before. He just feels all around yucky but he says he doesn't have a head ache, a sore throat, he hasn't been sneezing or anything, just a small cough and this whole eye business. Any ideas???

Common symptoms of pinkeye are:
  • Eye redness (hyperemia).
  • Swollen, red eyelids.
  • More tearing than usual.
  • Feeling as if something is in the eye (foreign-body sensation or keratoconjunctivitis).
  • An itching or burning feeling.
  • Mild sensitivity to light (photophobia).
  • Drainage from the eye.

I'm aware that body temps go up at night, but 102 is not, by any mans, a normal temperature for anyone, much less my seven year old little boy. He is very sick and listless. His whole body, specially his cheeks and neck, are flushed with feber, so it's definitely not something of the ordinary.

And pink in both eyes out of nowhere? I have no idea but I've never had a fever with pink eye.

He really doesn't have any of those symptoms save for them being beat red and oozing. Other than that he says they aren't bothering him at all :-\

Yeah off and on. Last night his tummy hurt and he wouldn't eat, which is not normal for him because the child eats like a horse. Well, today he said he was feeling up to something, so I gave him a small portion of a sandwich and some water to start. He ended up throwing it up. He's been able to keep water down, just not food.

He said no it doesn't. I'm just worried about the listlessness and the sudden thing with his eyes. It randomly happened.

I really can't tell...his eyes are watering really bad but it looks like the tear ducts are as well. They are just a big mess...I can take a picture hold on.

push lightly under his eyes (sinus area) and ask him if it hurts.
