Viral Syndrome

So, we took James to the clinic today because his rash had spread even more, and some were blistered like chix pox. The doctor said he had 'viral syndrome' and gave him a prescription for an antihistamine. After looking it up online, I have concluded that the doctor did not know what it was, because 'viral syndrome' is a term for anything that causes fever, nausea, vomiting, and rashes. He also 'thinks' he is not contagious, but doesn't really know. Again, we were definitely blessed by being able to get James on Medicaid, but we would prefer to have real insurance so that we could have competent doctors for him.

Bella had that a couple of months ago. Same rash, fever and cold like symptoms. Dr. called it same thing. Don't worry honey, there are so many yucky bugs, but God cares too much for your little guy! Medicaid is a blessing, be thankful, this is just a season!
