Hives...


...And no, I don't mean the bee kind. Noah got double ear infections before Thanksgiving and was given Amoxycillan. He finished his course of it and on Saturday afternoon he developed red rashy areas that had what looked like bee stings or mosquito bites in them. They've been coming and going since then, but each time they come back they are worse than the time before. Benedryl seems to help, but it's just sad that he has to go through this again. They are definitely not as bad as when he was 11 months old, but it still sucks! I called the doctor yesterday, and the nurse said that she said it's not from the amox since he stopped taking it before the hives showed up. But what does she know?! I don't know what else it could be. Hopefully, they won't last 3 weeks like before.
