What Could Have Caused Lethargy, Tiredness And Loss Of Appetite In An Child?

My five year old daughter has been very lethargic, tired, has loss of appetite and complaining of an upset stomach. She does not have a fever. She is a very high energy child and this is very abnormal. Should I be worried. She has been this way since Thurs.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
thanks for asking
i gone through your question. your 5 year old daughter who was very active before is being very lethargic , tired , loss of appetite and stomach upset without fever since few days.

sudden onset of lethargy and other symptoms need to be take care for cause. you should meet with pediatrican.

if i was your treating pediatrician , i would ask about colour of urine , is it yellowish. and then would advise test for to rule out any liver problem. but nothing to worry .
so a per my view you should meet with your pediatrician. to rule out any problem.
thanks
