She seems very young at not two yet to have growing pains in her legs , which a lot of children do get ,if they are doing a bone scan they will hopefully be able to give you some answers,they will get to the bottom of it, I know how worried you are feeling, just a waiting game .

Tonsils did they say anything about them ? Poor child I expect she feels so bad, I see they are doing tests so hopefully they will figure why she is so sick, meantime I suggest some pureed fruits, she may have a sore throat so anything soft would be good, lots of liquids, scrambled egg , if she is up to it let her feed herself as children like that ,for weight get her on a high fat diet, whole milk ,whole milk cheese, smoothies are good puree any fruits and add crushed ice and whole milk , cereals soaked in milk so they are soft.Let us know when the results of test come back and ask them to check her tonsils if they haven't already good luck
