Quick Update

Took Oldest into the doc this morning. We had a bad day and night last night. He could barley stand for even a minute without having to lay down because his hands and feet would burn. We were searching for a children's ER this morning and then our friends told us that our doc has Sunday hours now. We called and went straight there. We were soooo blessed and I know God was watching over us because low and behold the doc who was on duty was our regular pediatrician who we desperately tried to see on several occasions last week to no avail. To make a long story short our mystery illness is more than likely an allergic reaction to children's Motrin! She will be doing some blood work on Wed and hopefully it will tell us for sure or not.

Please read the entire bottle of all meds before giving them to your children! If I had read the Motrin bottle in full earlier in the week we could have caught on to this so much sooner or at least I think I would have caught on to it! I feel just horrible but am thankful to finally have an answer. The allergy is VERY rare. So rare indeed that the two docs that my son saw before today had even said to give him Motrin to help with his pain.

I will post more details when I get a chance. Just wanted to thank everybody for the well wishes and to maybe save somebody else from this situation!
