Diagnosis number two. Clay has double ear infections and we all have strep.
Casey got swabbed for strep Monday and the quick prep came back negative, but thank goodness they went ahead and gave him an antibiotic to take. They told him that it was probably just a viral infection so he probably wouldn't need any meds, to only take to the antibiotics if his throat got worse. (And it did the next day so he went ahead and started the Zpack.) They called back today and the send-off strep test they do came back positive. My throat has been hurting all week, but because we thought it was just viral I didn't do anything about it until they called and said it was strep. Yuck.
So, all three of us are on antibiotics. I will be off all weekend and it's a good thing because Clay's temp is 101. Poor little guy. I would much, much rather me be sick than him.
