    (((hugs))) to you OP, I think you've done the right thing in making sure he was checked out - you know him better than anyone because you're his mum and you should be proud of yourself for fighting for him. Your little one is lucky to have a mum as good as you :A hope it all works out for the best for you both, thinking of you, cel x

    Aw, it sounds like you've all had a rough time- my fingers are crossed for you that it's something that's very easily treated once you've found out what you're looking at. It's hard not to worry too much, but as your DH says, what will be will be- you need to take support from each other and get through this, it brings you closer as a family when you survive the worrying times of younger kids.

    Lots of hugs from me too.

    I suspect your family have told you that you are worrying unnecessarily because if they don't, they too will have to face the fact that something might be wrong.

    I hope you have heard from the doctor by now that it is nothing too serious. Your son does sound very poorly and I hope you are now getting the support you need from your family.

    Im sure youre all hugged out! But well done for listening to your own intuition, i bet that can be hard when people think youre making something out of nothing.

    I hope josh is fine, let us know how he gets on

    You poor thing. And how frustrating, but the good thing is that you are doing something and you have agreement and support from the doctors.

    It's understandable to be worried, but if anything does come back then at least you know what you are dealing with and can start to get your head around things.

    I hope that you have positive news to tell us soon........and until then....[hugs]
