Last year around this time Alex got Roseola. The reason I know this is because last year at this time we had just moved in to Grandma's and he was sick around the beginning of that. This year, now, he has a sinus infection. Last Monday I missed work because he was up all night coughing and I wanted an appointment so I needed to be available the whole day. The doctor gave Alex an antibiotic with Sulfa (which my mom and I are both allergic to). The doctor wavered about the decision because of our allergies but she decided to try it because it was the best antibiotic for the problem. We had no problems all week. Fast forward to Saturday and he starts with a fever. Then Sunday he gets some spots on his back. He didn't eat much this weekend and he was very whiny and clingy. He also complained of "poo poo, bo bo" and then he had a massive poo diaper. Patrick is taking off tomorrow because Alex has a fever and he needs to be checked to see if the rash is an allergy to the medicine.
At least poor Alex is off of the breathing treatments and codeine cough syrup. Poor little man.
