I completely understand what you are going through. My 6 year old son had been pale and just overall sick for a MONTH! He kept getting a fever for like a day or 2 almost every week last month. He never threw up and his bowels were fine. He was very very very pale. So pale that he actually started to look a little veiny in certain areas (you could see blueish veins in his head) and he had dark circles under his eyes. Talk about scary!! His energy (unlike your case) was depleted and he slept ALOT. Some days his energy was normal but a lot of days he slept off and on all day. That was NOT like him at all. He is usually bouncing off the walls with energy. I took him to the doctors 2x and they said he had signs of allergies at one point and also he had a little bit of a chest cold. The only thing I could figure out was that he got sick the first time and since the weather has been bad (we live in Cincinnati oh) and he is in school with other kids who have been sick he never had the chance to recooperate fully. So, he kept getting every little virus etc. going around. Eventually, it just got knocked out of his system and for the last week or so his color and energy has returned. Try not to worry too much (I know, we are moms so that's hard!!) I'm sure she will be okay. Unless she starts getting severe pains or something like that I wouldn't worry. Probably just a pesky virus. Good luck and hope that your daughter returns to her healthy happy self soon :)

did they do blood tests? She may be a little anaemic and thats why she is pale - although she probably would not have loads of energy if this is the case - if you are worried id take her back - better to be safe hey

smack her around a bit that will get her color back lol just kidding. my family has had the same thing I think she just needs to be made to lay down and sleep. maybe under some covers to break her fever.I wouls also give her vitamins. and if she isn't better in a couple more days take her back for blood work!

I'm 14 and this happened to me.. so its probably viral infection. I was like GREEN for 3 days and felt extremely sick but was never sick. Its just a virus, it'll pass :)
