Morning Ladies,
Rachel and me are feeling MUCH better
Juz went PD for review... finally the mystery illness is a history... YEAH!!!
Actually Rachel kanna this virus "Roseola" common in 6 mths to 2 YO kids. Read more here

Basically, it will cause high fever for 3-5 days followed by rashes for 3-5 days too. Hmm... dunno where she get that virus lei... PD said could be pass on by another bb to her, NOW Mil think is the polliwogs that i have been going -_-" hiaz...
Contagiousness:
Roseola is contagious and spreads through tiny drops of fluid from the nose and throat of infected people. These drops are expelled when the infected person talks, laughs, sneezes, or coughs. Then if other people breathe the drops in or touch them and then touch their own noses or mouths, they can become infected as well.
The viruses that cause roseola do not appear to be spread by kids while they are exhibiting symptoms of the illness. Instead, someone who has not yet developed symptoms often spreads the infection.
Her fever subsided last nite... me din slpzz much cos' scare her fever spike again. But is all worth it cos' she has no more fever ler, her rashes appear everywhere but is ok will go away few days later =)
After chatting with PD, when i asked is it true that high fever causes rashes after that? He said is actually so called "fake measles" or "Roseola" will only kanna once only and almost kids will kanna one time. That set me thinking... those bb that kanna rashes after fever, could it be Roseola too?
Anyhoo... I'm so happi now at least i know what is going on instead of guessing
