Well, sorry I didn't update about what the doctor said about the kids. No news is good news! Carlie was a lot better by the time we went and he thinks it was just a fluke thing with her throwing up and all. Carson's ears looked good and he did prescribe a cough medicine to help him get some sleep at night. Bubba also went to the doctor on Thursday for his terrible cough that he got back and his doctor prescribed him a cough medicine and Zithromax. So everyone should have been getting better, right? . . .WRONG!!! Poor Bubba was getting worse by the hour. By Friday morning he was dizzy and sweaty and felt horrible. The kids were good though. So I put another call into Bubba's doctor and after calling them twice and waiting, we decided to take him to the after hours care instead. They swabbed his nose and were able to confirm that he in fact had INFLUENZA A!!!!!! So the doctor prescribed Tamiflu and told me to immediately call my OB and the pediatrician. Both of them said to stay away from him totally until he has been on the Tamiflu at least 24 hours. So needless to say, I took the kids to my mom's house and tried to spend the night over there. Well, "our little homebody" wouldn't sleep at grandma's, so me and Carson went home and I slept on the couch. Poor Bubba spent all weekend with a surgical mask on and me constantly spraying him with Lysol. Needless to say the Tamiflu really helped him and he is back at the shop today. So far so good, nobody is coming down with it. Although, I do feel like I am getting Bronchitis! Please tell me Spring is coming soon! I am sick of everyone being SICK!!!!!!!
