Chunk is sick. Again.
Over 2 weeks ago he came down with a nasty cold. Fever, coughing, wheezing, the whole 9 yards. Today we went back in for a recheck. Last Wednesday he sounded so much better. Then Saturday night he started back coughing- and ended up throwing up a few times. This has happened a few times since then. Get to the dr's today and he listens to his chest and isn't happy with what he hears.
We have to keep up the albuterol and pulmicort and get into the allergist for allergy testing. If I can't get in within the next week I'm to go back to the regular dr for more prednisone.
We were also told to get rid of the carpets in the house and to do a mold test. There's something that's making him sick and we need to find out what.
Luckily we didn't have much carpet left in the house. Just the stairs and living room. The Chef spent the afternoon ripping the carpet off the stairs and removing all the nails and nail strips. He's going to paint them and we'll get something non slip to put on them for the goobers safety. Tomorrow we'll check and see what's under the living room carpet. So far since we moved in and ripped out carpet we've had decent wood floor underneath that just needed to be repainted. So we're hoping to find the same thing in the living room.
Pink eye is still going through the house too. The Chef is getting over it, I have it and Chunk had a gunky eye after his nap.
We also head back to the allergist with Spawn on Friday to see what course they will take next. I think he's done better since his heavy duty round of antibiotics, but I'm interested to see what he says. There was talk of taking his adenoids out this summer, so I'm sure we'll talk about that as well. I'm hoping they can just squeeze Chunk in at the same time, but we'll see.
No fun.
