Guest guest Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 Hi guys... We just learned yesterday that my oldest daughter may have strep throat...they sent it for culture, but we wont know for sure until tomorrow afternoon. (They did a rapid step, but Abigail's doctor called early and said we could not rely on that test alone) Mikaela's (my oldest) doctor felt at the time that it was most likely just tonsilitis. However, she still has a fever and isn't feeling well... Now Abigail has one and loose stools. I can not get a good look in Abigail's mouth...the doctor said to call if her temp went to 101 and then we would begin the protocol. I hate the waiting and not knowing what will happen next. Oh how things change so quickly. I learned that step throat is really common between the agea of 6 and 10. I am praying that whatever it is, it passes quickly and we do not have to go back into the hospital again. Colds worry me, viruses scare me...I can not begin to express how I feel about step throat. My docotr also told me that the roto(?spelling) virus is still going around because of the mild winter we have had so far. Please pray for us that this be nothing, or that if it is...that we are strong enough to get through it. A good story about someone getting through this would be wonderful.
