Smokey: he did have very high fever a week ago. Upon taking him to see his doctor, he was diagnosed with strept throat. I actually saw the white "dots" in his throat, so he did have a throat infection.
Now, with him getting this rash, I am wondering if he could have had both things at the same time (strept and rosceola), and the fever be a symptom of the two combined.
The timing is just right, between the fever and the rash for it being rosceola.
As Pornguy said, it is viral (and as you indicated, rosceola is caused by a virus), based on his blood results.
I just hope that this goes away quickly... it breaks my heart to see him like this.

Once again, thank you all (Smokey and all the other GFY'ers that posted here) for your concern and help offered. You guys are great. Muah!
