My 10 year old son been diagnosed with HSP
Posted , 4 users are following.
My 10 year old son was diagnosed with HSP around 7 weeks ago. He has regular blood pressure tests and urine tests which have mainly come back fine. However the pain he still suffers in his legs, which makes him unable to walk is severe. Unable to go to school when in such pain, he has not had a full week in school since being diagnosed, a couple of days every week at the most. The nurses say to treat with painkillers and he should be fine to go to school which angers me as they are not there at night seeing the pain that his in - the other night he told me he wanted to die! This breaks me as there is nothing I can do to stop the pain, painkillers eventually work and he falls to sleep but in the morning I'm carrying him to the toilet again as can't walk. Rashes and swelling all gone weeks ago and stomach pain minimal. When will this ever end? - I understand some people have it for years with all symptoms and I'm moaning only after several weeks. Just want answers that I suppose are not out there?

Hi Beth
Thanks for your reply. Someone else suggested this to me. I'll get some today. May take him back to doctors to see if they have stronger painkillers for him on bad days.
