Little better

Bryson had a good night last night. He was up one time with his coughing. His fever was up when he went down (101 with Tylenol in him) but it didn't seem to bother him to much last night. I think he just hit the point of exhaustion, as did I.

Yesterday our pediatrician said to call the Immunologist down at Glennon. I finally talked to them and I really liked the doctor I spoke with. He went over EVERYTHING with me. He said he was comfortable with Bryson being on a low dose antibiotic for now since his ANC was normal. (Yeah!!) He said if by Monday he is still spiking temps then they need to see him. I am hoping that by then he is better. He is having a pretty good morning so far! No temp. It usually comes on late morning and then comes back in the evening. Its so weird. Our pediatrician also suggested getting a chest x-ray to make sure he doesn't have pneumonia or bronchitis or anything else going on. We are going to do that this morning.

That's it for now. I really can't complain. They had us thinking that this is how he would be all winter long, and if this is the only issue this winter then we are pretty lucky.
