When dd was younger, the first sign she had strep was stomach ache and vomiting, even before she complained of the sore throat, and the sore throat did not bother her much. I was told that in little kids, they may not get such a sore throat (not like the intense pain we would get) and often it's the stomach upset with the fever and swollen glands that can be a clue (confirmed by culture). So glad they are feeling better and maybe you escaped the strep- hope you guys get to enjoy your chol hamoed after all! |

oy! refuah shleimah to your little one! siblings can be brutal - one time dd ran into the bedroom and closed the door behind her, asher was right on top and blammo, got mad and made it open so fast it flew right into her head! I tell you what though, she doesn't run in and slam the door behind her anymore ;) |

Barbie - it is actually IMPOSSIBLE clinically to tell if a sore throat is strep or not without culture. I have seen plenty of children with sore throats with white pus on the tonsils which on culture have turned out not to be strep.... ZC glad the kids are doing better. |

ok! That's just how my pediatrician (30+ years ago) taught us to look for it since I don't show signs of strep until it gets that bad. And 100% of the time, white dots = strep for me. |

funny, we had a ped that said if my mother said its strep, its strep. the whole block would come to my mother to get their throats checked. |

Yeah, that's pretty much it! I still have a dr. that goes by that. If I call him and say, "I have strep" I can practically have him call in a prescription without me coming in! (I do, but he gives a glance and says, "yeah.. you have it... I'll do a culture to be sure...") With me, it was ALWAYS strep. Hallie seems to be that way too.. |
