Doctor Visit Update

Bronchiolitis is the diagnosis... which in doctor speak means a very bad cold. He wasn't too concerned about the high fever, he concentrated more on Chase's wheezing. He said it wasn't too bad but gave me some things to look for... to be sure it doesn't get worse. Basically the call of action is albuterol (syrup form) and tylenol. So far so good... Chase takes medicine like a champ.

Thanks for everyone's well wishes... they are greatly appreciated ;~)

Ahhh, he'll be on the mend before you know it! Thank goodness it's easily treated. :-)

I was always surprised that drs weren't more concerned when the kid's fevers got so high. It's not as dangerous for kids to have that high of fever as it is for adults. Regardless, it's a real scare for the parents. Glad the report wasn't too bad and he's such a trooper.
