Sunday night Junior started running a fever and his oxygen needs went up. By Monday morning his oxygen need was back down but he was super crabby and telling me he hurt. I called the doctor and as soon as they heard that he had, had a fever they wanted to see him. Junior rarely runs fevers even when extremely ill. Monday afternoon we headed for the doctors office and by this time Junior was down to just a quarter liter of oxygen and satting 97%.
By the time we got to the office it had become clear that whatever was going on was not in his lungs and the oxygen need on Sunday was from his asthma. I told the doctor I suspected a sinus infection and after checking him out she agreed. His lungs sound good but he has a yucky cough and his nasal passages are red and gunky(not to mention he is saying his head hurts). He also decided to show off and his fever hit again as we were in the office. Junior was so upset about being at the doctors office and got very mad when he had to get out of his chair. The poor doctor was trying to listen to his lungs as he was crying and telling her "O,out, ow"("NO, out, now" ).
He started antibiotics last night and continues to be one cranky, sad guy. Lots of hanging out in the recliner and watching movies. Hopefully by tomorrow he will be feeling a lot better.
Please keep him in your prayers.
