I have heard before something about a SP? petechaie? rash.

What does this look like?

As I was dressing Brennan this morning, I noticed all over his back

and shoulders are small.....maybe a centimeter each? red lines. I have

never seen that before, and I bathe and dress him daily, so while I

had Donovan to neuro this morning, =----its a subspec clinic at the

local hospital where the drs from the hospital we usually go to 70

miles away--come a few times a month and occasionally we luck out and

get in there. Anyway, so I know the nurse and just so my mind wouldnt

keep LOOKING at these little lines, I asked her what she thought. She

said they looked like clusters of surface veins and she didnt really

know--ask the family dr next time we are in.

But I am just wondering WHY they suddenly popped up and have you guys

ever seen anything like this?

I know I worry sometimes overmuch, but he's my baby and he has been

thru so much, its hard for me NOT to worry. Esp with the bruising on

his face this week that weirded me out, his funky labs that I have to

wait until wed to get MORE labs done to r/o autoimmune crap---sigh. I

just cant NOT worry.

You know how when you close your eyes, you see all those blue veins?

It looks just like that, only red veins.

P.S--Is there a difference between a child behaviour specialist and a

developmental pediatrician, or are the words interchangeable?
