What Causes Headaches, Photosensitivity, Night Fever And Sore Joints?
My 6 year old has been diagnosed with uveitis, has high sed rates and elevated ANA. They have ruled out JRA and lupus. He has headaches, photosensitivity, nightly fever and sore knees, ankles and elbows. Dr. just ran more blood tests to check in to IBD and second set of lab tests is not covered by insurance and costs over 3K (we cannot afford that). Any other suggestions? We have even been considering seeing a naturopath. This has been going on for 4 months now.

I hope he becomes better soon
