It's Monday.......already!



This week has been so busy, but reading and blogging wise I have not achieved much at all.


My youngest AJ, has had a bad start to the winter with his asthma and several viruses.  We did start last winter like this, and being at playschool he picks up every cold/virus going.


It came to a head this week when he developed a limp.  I was checking for verrucas (he goes swimming with daddy on a Monday), went and got his fitted shoes checked to see if they were pinching, and even wondered if he had sprained his ankle.


After several days and no improvement, I took him to the GP.  The GP was sure the limp was coming from the hip not the foot.  We were sent to hospital for further investigation.  After examinations, blood tests and a scan, which eliminated infection in the blood etc, the docs decided it is a condition where all the anti-bodies AJ has floating around fighting all these viruses collect and cause hip or knee pain.  


We have a follow up at the hospital in 2 weeks to see if after pain treatment, AJ's condition has improved.
