Kawasaki disease?


My daughter has multiple symptoms of kawasaki disease (peeling hands, fever x 10d, swollen cracked lips, rash, sore throat) but her CBC and Sed Rate came back normal. Does anyone know of anyone that had kd with a normal cbc and sed rate?

This is a rather long article but has excellent information, including warnings about the rare dire consequences that can occur. They need to monitor her heart closely for the next few weeks. I am glad she is under physicians' care.

Yeah actually my husbands little cousin just did the same thing and they thought it was kawasaki but it turned out to be a urinary tract infection of all things...make sure they check her for EVERYTHING else

My tractor has a Kawasaki engine.
