So it's looking like the Fredy's are getting better (for now). Siena has not had a fever since Saturday afternoon!!!! We are still giving her antibiotics for the possible ear infection, which she doesn't seem to mind too much although the dispenser for the amoxicillin went missing last night (Cole) and he says it is in the freezer. Well I looked and it isn't there. Anyone know what else a toddler might say that sounds like freezer???? I am still feeling sluggish. I don't like having a cold. I am glad that my body at least took mercy on me a little bit and fought off most of this swine flu, but I want to feel normal again, and fast! Cole is doing well. He is still coughing a bit and the snot has seemed to take over his body. Poor guy had to deal with some pretty rough congestion.
We had a minor set back today with Siena being super fussy over her ear and then waking up with hives! So of course we go back to the doctor this evening. There is still fluid behind her eardrum but the redness is gone which means the antibiotic has helped but the hives may have been caused by an allergic reaction to the amoxicillin. So to find out if that it true the doctor wanted us to give her another dose and see if she gets any hives. With in two minutes she had hives!!! Crazy!!! So time for a new antibiotic.
until the next sickness or bump in the road.

Patrick developed hives this last time that he was give amoxicilyn as well. As soon we stopped it and got another antibiotic, it went away...so there is a big red sign on his chart now to not give him those drugs anymore...
so that's what hives looks like...good to know. Thanks Dr. Fredy
