Ugh!

Another visit to the doctor on Monday left us with a prescription for an antibiotic and a steriod cream. Anna has a sinus infection, fluid behind her right ear, and severe eczema. The picture doesn't even begin to show how bad her skin looked. Sunday night she had red welts all over her shoulders and chest and it was really itching her. The steriod cream seems to be working thankfully although we've yet to see any results of the antibiotic although it takes a few days to see a change. We're headed back to the doctor in a month so they can get a good look at her adnoids when she's healthy (hopefully) as we're figuring they're large to begin with making it difficult for her sinuses to drain. The poor girl has had soooo many sinus infections for only being two years old.

so sorry to hear she is not feelingw ell. Tal has severe exzema as well. We have FINAlLY come off of steroid cream thanks to a new lotion that just came out- Cerave!!! IT is behind the counter at walgreens but you do not need a prescription- just ask for it behind the counter- I get the thick 16oz moisturing cream. Hope this helps!
