Periodic Fever Syndrome - TRAPS
Discussion
Hi folks,
I wondered if anyone has any experience of this with their kids?
Our daughter (4) has been experiencing fevers with no other symptoms (High temperature and nothing else) repeatedly over the course of the last year. Inbetween the fevers, she leads a perfectly normal and healthy life, then out of the blue, one hits and she's wiped out for a week.
Following a lot of tests, the doctors 'think' it might be a genetic abnormality called TRAPS which is a particular type of Periodic Fever Syndrome. We are of course continuing the tests and potential full diagnosis on this.
Anyway, any other parents experienced this? Interested if anyone has also seen anyone diagnosed with this.
Thanks
