DH is really worried and considering leaving work early to take DS to the doctor. I wasn't too worried, but DH worrying worries me, KWIM?
here are DS's symptoms:
*fever up to 103.5 has been going up & down for 4 days now, responds to tylenol
*cough, difficulty breathing, MUCH worse at night. Does NOT respond to breathing treatment (nebulizer) but gets a little better w/cough meds
*not eating
*diarrhea the 1st day, better now
*extremely lethargic (He's falling asleep sitting straight up on my lap right now. Normally he'd be fussing w/the keyboard or getting mad at me or running around)
*plain old miserable...cranky, clingy-normal "sick kid" symptoms in my book :shrug
So DH is super worried. I just figure he's got a virus. I really don't want to expose him to all the germs at the doctors office, there's a lot of hand, foot & mouth disease & flu going on around here, but if I need to take him I will. WWYD?
