Diary of Sick Children

I should start a blog solely to keep records their medical history......

Anyway.

Sunday:
We brought ER to hospital because he had fever on Saturday night, middle of his sleep. He was 40.1°C.

I gave him Bifen on Sunday at 6am but his fever didn't go down enough by 9am. It was 38.3°C. We brought him to KKH.

There, he was given 1st, 10 puffs of ventolin (compared to the usual 4 in most serious case), another exhaler which I can't recall its name, paracetamol and Prednisolone.

After that 1st session, we had to wait half hour each time before ER received the puffs a second and third time again in maximum dosage.

Fever peaked at 39.4°c despite  paracetamol so I was given a sponging kit.

By noon, Dr allowed us to return home after ER's wheezing improved and especially after his oxygen level returned to normal. She prescribed Amoxicilin after noticing something les than normal from his x-Ray.

Monday:
He was well without fever. We kept him at home to rest and medicate.

Tuesday (today)
He went to school happily and back.

Everything was back to normal. Till I woke him from his nap. He was still sleepy so I allowed him to continue resting in the living room. He felt warm. Took temperature. Fever AGAIN. 38.3°C.

WT......

AND HE THREW UP TWICE SINCE THEN.

What is wrong??????

He's still on tonnes of medications from KKH. And I already stopped giving Asumalife. Is he having Stomach Flu or had something nasty?

From AN or from food?

When will this be over?

It's been 4 months since the start of this on-going battle.

When will it end?
