Back to the doctor

Well we took Elliot back in today....go figure! He sneezed this morning and green came from deep within! His antibiotic was set to be done tomorrow anyway..so we needed to get a new one anyway to get us till Monday...no we have a stronger dosage...this is getting crazy! I also wanted to go in because he was still wheezing. It really has improved a lot but they told me to check back in if it was still here after a week...which it was. So we have to continue is inhaler till the Friday after surgery. The biggest concern is that the anesthesia will make his breathing worse so we need to make sure this wheezing is under control. If it gets worse between now and Monday that may postpone the surgery. This wheezing is a completely separate issue from all the adenoid infections. They think this is more related to asthma (mild form right now). So they are just trying to control if with milder medications for now. Poor man....I feel horrible for him. Lets just pray this surgery will help him to finally get over this infection in his body!
