After another miserable day on Tuesday and an even more miserable night and next morning we ended up at the Dr. office again with Zaden and his rash/fever. We didn't get to see his normal Dr. again as he was out for the afternoon but the Dr. we saw today doesn't think it is Roseola....What...What...What? He even brought in a third Dr. while we were there for a second opinion. They are calling it Vasculitis. So now we are learning all sorts of things. He believes it probably did look a lot like Roseola when we brought him in on Monday but thinks it can't be now as it is darker and more bruise-like now. They also did blood work and a urine sample (poor thing) to make sure it wasn't effecting anything like his kidneys or liver and to check his platelet counts.
Talk about scaring a Mom to death!!!!! After being there for over 2 hours the urine sample came back clean which was a big relief. They should be calling us with the blood work result any time now. And then we go back to a 4th appointment tomorrow after. Thankfully, this one will for sure be with his regular Dr.
Fourth time's a charm right? We'll keep you posted.
