Ok so after checking on him late Friday night and although is was still there it had not spread, but by Saturday morning he was covered pretty much everywhere but his face. He also had been running a fever and still having ear, head,stomach and throat pain. So off to the ER we went. Everyone thought he had Strep Rash but after that test came back negative that was ruled out. The verdict is that he came in contact with something he is highly allergic too and because of this we now have to start carrying around epi pens for him again. What it was is hard to tell but it was enough to make this go on for days. Except for School he has only been at home and these episodes happened at home. He was given more benadryl and put on Zyrtec daily. After it did end up spreading to his face that night i am happy to report that by Sunday evening all was gone and he has not broken out since. While there they did check his ears again and even though we had just got done taking Omnicef for almost 2 weeks both ears were still infected and full of fluid. So he had to get Rochepin shots 2 Saturday go back and 2 on Sunday and then go back and get 2 today. I am happy to report that his left ear is looking good and his right ear is getting better. Let's hope that from here things continue to get better.
