A member asked:

Child w/asthma fever 101.9, throat & stomach feels funny. dr listened to lungs no respiratory symptoms. active. strep & flu negative, is it wrong?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say: The listed symptoms are not specific to any disease. If flu & strep tests are negative it is likely one of dozens of other viruses.Time will usually present more symptoms & allow for a better label.
