Sick

I knew that 7 hours in the ER was a bad thing. Anna is officially sick. Started last night with a fever of 102 and then she woke up this morning still 101. UGH!! She complained of her head and eyes hurting. Her throat hurt too bad to really swallow and her chest sounded congested. Concerned about strep, I took her off to the doctor's office today where they immediately ran strep and flu cultures. Strep came back negative, but she is positive for influenza type A and B. UGH!! See what I mean. She sent us home with a prescription for some decongestant that has an antihistamine in it, so we can skip the Zyrtec while she is sick. She also gave her Relenza. The side effects of that may be worse than the actual flu, so we may not go through the whole thing. UGH! Anyhow, so there you have it. We are on a Tylenol , juice and TV liquid diet today. She has basically laid down and watched more TV over the course of the day than all month long. LOL!! Praying she is better soon and back to her old self and that the Relenza doesn't give her the side effects that it could. Take care all and I will update you tomorrow after work.
