What Causes High Fever Along With Abdominal Pain And Sore Throat?

My 7yo son began a rash July 12. Since then he has developed joint pain that moves around his body, a fever for 5 consecutive days including today, occasionally limps, sore throat, belly pain. The fever has gone up to 103. He has been to an ER three times, visited the pediatrician twice, had seen a rheumatologist once, and a family physician. They requested 5 blood draws, 2 urinalysis, 2 strep tests. He tested negative for ANA, celiac, strep, liver/kidney conditions, parvovirus, mono. Do you have any ideas of what this is? My son only has a Hx of migraines. Other than that, prior to July 12 he was completely healthy.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
hello
please get a ASO tire test and ESR. what I am suspecting is a streptococcal inectiin leading to all such symptoms.
please get the test soon and consult a doctor so that benzyl penicillin can be started. we need to start the medicine early to prevent the later complications.
if treated early the later complications can be avoided.
thanks and take care.
