Does this rash sound familiar?

DS has a rash on his trunk and it's teeny tiny red pin prick looking dots all over his tummy.  That's the only place I see it.  He also has a very slight fever and his cheeks are really red.  His nose is runny and he has a cough that we just gave a nebulizer treatment for.  Other then that you wouldn't think he was feeling yucky because he's running around playing like nothings the matter.  The rash has me worried because I haven't seen anything like it.  He just got over a rash a couple of weeks ago and that at least looked semi normal for a toddler rash!

  • Roseola?  Chris had it last week and he had a fever that spiked to 104.5.  Once it went away he broke out in a rash that looked like tiny red dots, almost prickly heat rash-like.  We took him back to the pedi just to make sure that was what it was and it was confirmed.
  • Nope, not Roseola.  He had that last year and he hasn't had a fever at all this week until tonight.  And it's only 100 degrees so not really even a fever.  Uhhh!  I'm so ready for him to be 100% healthy again!  I feel like he's been sick this whole month!
