April 17th, 2012 - Day 17

Isaac awoke with more nausea in the morning and I gave him a Zophran. He felt better soon thereafter and ate some breakfast. I was relieved to have my child eating again. I dropped him off at preschool and when I picked him up three hours later he had hives all over his legs and arms. No more Zophran for him. I gave him some Benedryl and called our doc. The doc was very surprised and felt like he would be okay to continue on the Zophran. I wasn't so sure. His immune system was already over-reacting to itself and I wanted to minimize the trauma.

The good news is that over the next few days the nausea lessened and Isaac was able to eat a little more and ride in the car without vomiting.

The hives all turned to purpura. He had a rough afternoon with swelling and soreness in his legs and feet.
