The Friday before Easter Daycare calls me & said "Izzy woke up from nap with lots of little sores". By the time I had gotten there to pick the girls up the "little sores" had multiplied. Took her home, they just kept coming so, we decided to take her to an ER (do not have Urgent Cares here in the country). Love the hospital in the country, people are so nice, so clean & so quick. The doctors stated that it looked like hives. Could not figure out what she had had that would cause them. She was on Amoxicillin for about 1 week (has been sick on & off since Daycare), she ate things that she has in the past & no changes in lotions, bath or laundry soap. The doctor was a little puzzled & said he had never seen such a bad case of hives before. His final diagnosis was allergic reaction to the Amoxicillin, it is called serum sickness since she had been on it for a week. He gave her some Benadryl & Presnisolone. She was 90% better the next day. It was pretty scary, she was so miserable & just wanted to itch like crazy. The one picture is of her in her hospital gown & jumping around on the bed at the hospital(by the way, she is not our quite one!) The other picture is of her back when we first got to the hospital & the hives were still popping out. Thank goodness she is fine & I am not sure this is the last of the hospital trips that we have in our future :0(
