okay here the story I took my 9 yr old to the ER (the dr office closed 4 hoildays due to a red pussy eye and other symptom and they dx her with pink eye and gave her eye drops.....but everyone keeps telling me there seems to be more to it cuz she is also running a high fever(100.1-102 with rotating tylenol and mortin every 2 hr), sore throat and vomiting just plain out miseralble cant get much to stay down a little ginger ale and meds and but thats it and am lucky if that stays So to some it up I guess my question is Is it normal to have all those other symptoms with pink eye or do I have more to worry about

Definitely sounds like there is more going on there... Try to keep her hydrated with juice, soup, or water And, definitely keep the fever in check. It sounds like she has an infection somewhere... I would definitely take her back to the doctor soon if you can't get her symptoms under control.

No, those are NOT normal symptoms of pink eye.
Take her to a doctor or the ER as soon as possible.

Pink eye does not cause any of the symptoms you have described. It maybe possible that the infection did spread, but I've never heard of it.

umm..i read this in readers digest, this
woman's daughter also had that pink eye,
and she just searched it up in google, she later
found out that there was a chance her daughter
could become blind, thank fully they had the problem fixed in time, not sure though,
but let it just be a precaution,

I'd take her back if symtoms are getting worse, and if her eye looks worse, she might be allergic to the drops. Good Luck!
