A 'mini-flare'?

[Lydiasmum]

So we have just been to the amusements with a bag of coins to kill a bit of time and DD got sooo upset in there. The music one of the slot machines was playing was making her feel sad. We left there but she has been thinking about the music ever since and keeps crying, telling me she can't get the tune out of her head. When I have distracted her, we have shot straight to silly behaviour and drunken laughter over nothing. Thinking about it, yesterday she seemed a bit off and didn't want to come in the shop with me as there were too many people and she has faint dark circles appearing under her eyes. I hope there is nothing bigger coming - she has been good for a few months now. I'll give her ibruprofen before bed to see if her mood is more stable tomorrow. Has anyone else experienced these symptoms?

Yes, it can be as simple as she was around somebody with strep and it triggered an immune response. When my son gets these "miniflares" they usually last 3-5 days. Loose teeth and dental work can also cause these types of flares (releasing strep bacteria from the mouth into the blood stream).
