Anorexic in that the patients had an extreme loss of appetite.

I still think my son already had this illness.

Two weeks ago he started feeling fatigued and kinda weak. Especially at the end of the school day. I could barely understand him when he talked and he judged wanted to lay around.

Few days later he was having stomach aches and had a few bouts of diarrhea.

About the same time a cough started.

By Wednesday night he spiked a 102.5 fever and the coughed worsened. The cough got so nasty we worried about going to the emergency room

By Friday evening, he was fine. Lingering wet cough lasted for a few days.

Flu test was negative.


Both mine had the same exact symptoms and negative test. Doctor just called it croup but it lingered for a good while.

What I find a little off is the fact that 83 of 99 patients in the study are anorexic.


Anorexia is the loss of appetite.

They aren't "Anorexics," meaning folks that have that condition where they intentionally starve themselves.
