Thursday and Friday at the Doctors...

Thursday morning (9-24) Carson woke up with no (I mean absolutely no) color in his face, not even his lips, he was chalky white...very scary. The first thing we checked was his O2 levels, they were fine, he was at about 93%. We took his temp. 102 axillary, pretty high. He had also been having diarrhea the last few days. (We did not think much of it as we had been giving him pear juice.) We called his pediatrician, she of course wanted to see him. We spent 2.5 hours there, checking blood and flu. His white blood count was sky high, normal is between 5-7 Carson's was 31!! He has a major infection of some kind in his body. The pediatrician wanted to admit him to the hospital right away. We of course did not want to do this, so we opted for some tests at Children's Mercy. They tested him for N1H1, did a stool test, blood cultures and chest x-ray. The chest x-ray came back negative for pneumonia. We do not have the results from other tests. They gave him a Rocephin shot at the dr, and put him on Tamiflu and Amoxicilin. Carson's white blood count was down to 10 on Friday. Thank the Lord, we did not have to be admitted and he recovered as fast as it came on. Though we are not sure what the infection was. I will post what the other test results were when we get them.
