It has to get better from here...

So I took Matthew back to the doctor again yesterday because he seems to be getting worse every day...he was so sad all day and didn't sleep at all! He had 6 doses of the prescription and he was still getting worse, so back to the doctor we went! The doctor said he now has a double ear infection and that's it's getting worse instead of better! He suggested switching prescriptions, so we put him on a stronger one! He said his ear drums are so swollen and full of fluid that it's very likely that one or both ear drums could rupture! It's sounds worse than it is, but it's still not something that we want! Unfortunately, the new prescription lowers his immune system again, so we're back to not really leaving the house to avoid more germs and a longer sickness! We are really hoping that Matthew will turn a corner really soon, but our doctor told us it could take up to 72 hours to see results! He was up last night from 2:30am until 5am! Scott was out of town and I was exhausted! Actually, exhausted doesn't even begin to describe it! But he was much happier this afternoon and hopefully tonight will be a better night! Scott is home now, so if it's not, then Matthew is all his!
On a happy note...his lungs sounded much better and we can drop back to one breathing treatment a day! Yeah! Of course, now it really doesn't bother Matthew and he will just sit there all by himself until it's done! Go figure! Oh well...one less medication for me to worry about!
