Rollercoaster!

Well the last three days have been a major roller coaster ride with Madison.  She had not been feeling well all week and started running a low grade temp on Monday so I gave her some Tylenol and of course it went away until it was due again.  By Wednesday she was running a 102 - 103 temp so I took her to our Kroger "Little Clinic" we have always had pretty good luck with them and it is always super fast.  Well they tested her for strep and looked at her ears and throat and strep was negative and she just told us to give her tylenol/motrin and alternate them.  We did and felt some better and the next day she was ok till around 5 and it shot back up to 102.6  So then I took her to our Family Health Group walk-in clinic since it was after 5 and they checked her again and said they thought she had a UTI.    So we got an antibiotic and I felt some better thinking we had figured out what was causing the temp.  Well she did fine the rest of the night and the next morning it shot back up again and so I called the Doctor on call to have them call me at home and try to figure out what to do next...  She recommended that we head to the ER in Williamson Medical Center and let them do blood work and CT scan.  We headed to the ER and they put an IV in her and took blood and urine sample and did a CT scan and everything came back fine, they were thinking it could be her appendix.  So they said it has to be a virus...  so we are still fighting her temp.  but hopefully in the next couple of days it will all go away!  She is actually feeling fine this morning so maybe between the antibiotic and Tylenol/Motrin she is getting better!  Everyone say a prayer for Madison that she will be better soon!
