My son is almost 8 he became very sick in April with abdominal pain swollen lymph nodes and legs hurting he has had blood test a cbc , MPv ,CRP and they have come back normal .but since then he has had very low energy and complains of his legs hurting all over and has started to gain weight. There have been times he didn t want to go to the pool and just wanted to lay down and he loves the pool. This is not growing pains. Or a normal energy level for a 8year-old boy Who used to be very active.
