We've reached then end of a two week run of various sicknesses in our home, for which I'm very grateful (the end, not the sicknesses)! The parade of sicknesses went out with a bang last Friday as Theia developed this rash from head to toe on Friday. After a quick visit to the doctor (the third in two weeks) we were able to determine that she was having a reaction to the antibiotic Zithromax.
We stopped the Zithromax, but the rash continued to worsen all weekend.
Thankfully, she wasn't too bothered by it. A few bedtime doses of Benadryl to control itching was all it took.
She still has some slight skin discoloration almost a week later, but the bright red hives have all disappeared. Lets hope the next two weeks are less eventful in the sickness department!
Yikes! Hives are so scary! I'm glad Theia (and everyone else too) is starting to feel better.
