memorial day weekend

memorial day weekend started out well but like every other holiday weekend james ended up sick again poor thing I had to take him to urgent care on sunday because of a high fever of course he had another ear infection so they started the injections again
 went back Monday afternoon for the second injection and by 11 oclock that night I had to rush him to the er because he was vomiting every where mind you I told the doctor that he was weezing and his cough was getting worse but they thought nothing of it so because the cough had gotten so bad it caused him to vomit everywhere for hours so they prescribed him some cough medicine to help which it did he finally got some sleep after 2 days
  then we had to go back Tuesday for the final injection I inform the doctor what had happened the night before and he looked stunned he couldn't understand why he was getting worse so he ordered a chest xray and come to find out he has bronchitis they did a breathing treatment and gave him the final injection and prescribed an inhaler for ever 6 hours
 finally after all of this they finally came to the conclusion he needs tubes in his ears and gave me a referral to see the ENT so Monday we meet with the audiologist and the ENT and see what is going on and set up the apt for him to get his tubes
I am glad that my baby boy will be getting better soon I just feel they could have decided this alittle sooner so my son didn't have to suffer so much and I also feel that I am his mother I know when something is off and they should not brush my concerns off like they are nothing if they would have listened to me my son probably would have not had to go to the hospital and we could have caught his bronchitis a little sooner I would say change pediaitricians but I have noticed with have been to a few that they are all the same except for one but he is in Indiana and that does not help me much here

  4. Poor little guy. The tubes will definitely help. My 4 year old had the same issues and once the tubes were in he didn't have anymore ear infections. I hope they schedule the surgery soon so he can feel better.
