You should have yourself evaluated and try not to diagnose your condition yourself. There are too many possibilities. If you want additional information (beyond what we recently described in this Forum), conduct an internet search. You'll find a wealth of details about Fifth Disease.

This is likely another problem, and should be called to the attention of her physician.

I have anemia. I also just discovered i have fifths disease. Alot of research i have done on the internet says that fifths can be extremly dangerous if your anemic and immediate care from a doctor is needed. Is this true, and would you suggest seeing a doctor?
