My 12 yr old daughter has a low grade fever that doesnt break. Started with a sharp abdominal pain and now its a mild pain that radiates around stomach. Not centralized to one particular area. Very fatigued. What can it be? Her fever stays at 99.6

I'd recommend getting her to an actual hospital, man. You're not going to get any good medical advice from some laid off oil field workers on here.

There's this thing called a hospital, where sick people go. And inside the hospital there's this thing called an emergency room, where sick people go on weekends.

What are you waiting for?

You probably need to remove her appendix. Do you have a knife around you? I can walk you through this.

I would look for an urgent care center, if not available, then hospital.

Don't be that Dad asking for lifesaving medical advice from random internet strangers.

It's your daughter a-hole. Get her to a doctor.

Doctors are overrated, My kid had this big growth on his ear the other day, I just took out my filet knife and lanced it, no big deal. We're going to do the other ear in the morning.

To be safe you should get this checked out ASAP in case this is appendicitis.

Whatever you do, don't go to ER.
Go to primary care physician

We're way beyond diagnosis ellis, we are on the treatment now. Catch up with the rest of the class.

OP, you find that knife yet? What I want you to do is boil a pot of water

"don't take her to the doctor, honey. I'll just ask the OT Lounge. That way we will get advice from auto mechanics, paper mill workers, web developers, plumbers, accountants, hairdressers and parole officers. Our daughter will be in good hands".
