Well...we just had a minor flu bug go through the house. My non-cah
daughter had fever for 3 days. Then two days later, Kyle woke up and threw
up twice. AFter dealing with that, we found he had 102.5 fever. Gave
stress dose, threw that up, and tried one more time with a stress dose, and
no more vomitting.....but still fever. Meanwhile, I have the fever, too.
Now for my thoughts...I wonder if Kyle threw up because his levels were
getting out of whack? He acts like he feels better than I do, but he is the
only one that threw up. When I called our ped about whether or not we
should come in for the shot, he said to try one more oral dose (that was the
second try I mentioned) first. It all turned out okay, but I still feel
like I should have been able to give him the shot at home and not worry
about keeping it down a second time!!
