Seriously - my poor little dude has ANOTHER double ear infection. This is #4. Since he started daycare.
They're started to throw out the "T" word - tubes. We were in the Dr's office 3 times this week...the oral antibiotic he was on last week wasn't doing the trick - and it was the strongest they could give him orally (Suprex). So, this week...he was introduced to Rocephin. Ewwww. No fun kids. I have had Rocephin shots as an adult, and I can handle shots pretty well...but that one is a booger. Poor kiddo - he had one on Monday and another one on Wednesday because they still weren't clear. And by not clear, I mean "vanilla pudding" not clear. Yeah, Dr. Jay's words - I swear.
So....we were there this morning again for a recheck and there was still fluid - but not infected fluid. So he escaped the Rocephin shot...but we were warned that the next ear infection most likely warrants a visit to the ENT.
Bluh. STAY AWAY EAR INFECTIONS!!!
