Well, it would appear that 20 days of antibiotics did not quite get rid of the strep bacteria in poor little Hunter's throat. He still has some pockets of strep infection on one of his tonsils. Our doctor said to give him 4 more days of Omnicef (b/c we have some) to give him 14 days of this particular antibiotic, and we have an appointment with the ENT for March 3rd. If, in the meantime, he should spike another fever and the strep rears it's ugly head, we are to either call our doctor or go straight to the ENT. I really just want Hunter back to his normal self. They checked his hemoglobin yesterday just to make sure he is not anemic...his color is really pale and he just doesn't look well. That did come back normal, so this infection has just wiped him out.
So now I can get on to thinking about birthdays that are coming up this week! Hunter will be 7 Wednesday and Garrett will be 5 on Saturday!
