History of present Complaints-

        (Sensation, location, modalities, concomitants)

The girl came to me with her parents with complaints of fever 103 degrees (F) passed loose stools, coughed a lot and appeared restless. Her mother said she feels better, remains quite as long as I held her tight against my body but the moment I move her into any other position she starts crying. She does not want to lie down in the bed even for a minute. She prefers my belly instead. She clings on to my clothes; she lies with her eyes closed and would not open them.

If she tries to lift herself she lies again.
