I took my 7 yr old DD to the pediatrician yesterday afternoon for a rash and a sore throat.
To my surprise they did a rapid strep test and it came back positive! This is for a kid who did not act real sick...
So she now is on Penicillin for 10 days and has antibiotic cream for the rash on her butt.
Thank goodness I followed my instincts and took her rather than let time go and then she would have been miserable on our trip.
We leave tomorrow afternoon(Wed) and , unless she has a reaction to the Penicillin, then she should be okay to travel.
So now besides laundry, last minute packing- I have my DD home from school and we still want to leave on time. My nerves are shot!!
I know everything will be okay, but I feel better to vent a little bit.
I feel like a child waiting for Santa. Tommorrow will take too long to get here..<sigh>
