No idea what is wrong with him :(

I posted the other day about my son having a sudden temp and then a febrile seizure. He had a low fever yesterday, and seemed tired. Didn't eat or drink a whole lot either. It almost seemed like his throat was bothering him because he was having trouble swallowing.
There were a few periods where he would just cry and cry and it almost reminded me of the newborn days when they cried and you had no idea what they wanted. Nothing was working with him - he didn't want to eat, drink or do anything. But there were times when it seemed like he did want to eat and drink and tried but couldn't - maybe hurt too much?
He seemed great all morning and even tried playing. But about a half hour ago just lost it again. He isn't a huge talker yet, but when he wants to eat he will go and point to what he wants or go to his high chair. He would just stand in the hallway and cry and when I tried offering him food or something to drink he got hysterical!
Last night was the worst before bed and calmed down instantly when I turned off his light and put the white noise on. I swear he fell asleep in two seconds.
I just wish I knew what was wrong with him. He drooled a lot yesterday and today, so part of me is wondering if this is all his teeth. This is so hard not knowing! I can't wait until he is older and can just tell me what is wrong 
Re: No idea what is wrong with him :(
I would probably make an appointment mama! He might have strep or something. I would feel better going in, even if it turned out to be nothing. Hope he feels better soon! It's so sad when they can't tell you anything and are sick.
Oh no!! Poor guy.
I'd make an appointment to get him checked out.

Yeah, I may call tomorrow. Last time he had HFM they actually asked me to NOT bring him in. I understand that since it is so highly contagious. We'll see what they say.
Sigh...
Deep breaths!! I can do this...again!
He started to get sick on Friday, fever Friday night so this is now the third day. I'm trying to remember how long it lasted last time and I want to say maybe five days total. But I do know this time could be a worse strain
The format is the same though since last time he had a fever for two days and then the third day the sores.
Thanks so much ladies. Our pediatrician has early morning walk in hours, and I'm going to take him in for that to see. He did eat a bit more at dinner - some grapes and yogurt. But he had a meltdown before dinner and it breaks my heart to see him so upset. I think he just has to be beyond frustrated and I definitely get the feeling he must be hungry but just can't eat. Especially to add in the fact that he's too young to fully explain what is wrong. Hopefully we will get some answers at the pediatrician tomorrow.
Just wanted to update for anyone who might be checking back. Took him to the pedi this morning and he is fine. The doctor said his throat does look a little sore but no strep, ear infection or HFM. He still has these weird spots on his arm, but the dr didn't say much about it. He said if anything it could possibly be a very light strain of HFM, but he doubts it. He even said he was fine to go to daycare today if I needed to send him.
