OMGosh!!!!
Matthew, my soon to be 8 year old, woke up with a weird rash on his arms and torso this morning. My DH took him to the Dr. They did a rapid strep test on him and it came back negative. She said it could be a reaction to something, or a virus. Or, it could be strep but it's just too early for it to come out positive.
She said if he starts with any other symptoms on our trip, we should call her right away and she'll call in a script. Great, but we won't have a car. I guess we'll need to put some money aside for a taxi, just in case.
Please say a little prayer that he's OK. She gave us Zyrtec to give him at night in case it's an allergy thing (he's also on Claritin and Nasonex, so he should be good and doped up)
Why do things like this happen before vacation???
