Scarlett Fever - No gets this anymore right?

Wrong!
The pediatrician just told us today that my 8 year old daughter has it.
Poor kid. All rashy, bad case of strep throat, fever, and just downright feels terrible.
I never knew this was still around but evidently it is.

Wow that bites:( .I hope it goes away very quickly for her sake.

Ouch.... Sorry! I had it when I was too young to remember, but my MOMMY told me stories!!! :oops: Best wishes to a fast recovery!!!!!!! :grouphug:

Wow, that bites! :(
Some of the old, extinct diseases are starting to come back and rear their ugly heads in the "developed" countries, such as the US. Polio is making a come back as well.
At least there is medicine for them now. I hope your daughter gets over it quickly, that's a nasty thing to contend with.

I had that when I was 7. But uh ... I uh ... had it in REALLY bad spot. Peelign skin, and rash and some blisters ... Ugh, not a good thing.

i had the same thing, i think i was around 7 as well. it sucked.

My son had it a few years ago, 104 Temp! He has suffered from asthma ever since.. Keep an eye on her Bro!

sending loving supportive :hug: to you and your daughter.

I hope she makes a speedy recovery!

That is odd, and a lot worse than the mumps my husband suffered last year. I sure hope she gets to feeling better soon, the poor dear.
