My husband has had a stiff neck and extreme fatigue for a month. The past week he has had chills and what he describes as a 'sore stomach.' He has a poor appetite. He went to a doctor who said his blood work looked good and ordered a sleep study, which has not yet been evaluated. What additional tests should we request, and what could be causing these symptoms?

My 2-year-old has been complaining of back pain for over a week, which is worse at night and upon awakening.

What could be causing this, and what tests should be done?
