Kelton's 1st E.R. visit

Last week Kelton woke up in the middle of the night screaming. After checking him over, we found a small blister on his right pinky. Funny thing was that he was complaining about his bum. Not sure where this blister came from and having him fall right back asleep we thought nothing of it. Then the next day the blister continued to grow bigger and bigger and his entire hand was swelling! I thought maybe a spider had bit him and was watching the skin to see if it started sluffing off or turning black, but all I saw was a little rash on both hands? Still not wanting to be an over-bearing mother I offered tylenol for pain and added extra TLC. Then around 4pm that day, he had a sudden fever of 102.8 and started vomiting?! Yep...we sped to the hospital. When we got into triage his temp had gone up to 103.4 and we were then taken to a room. Still 15 minutes later, nothing had been done about his high fever! We were seen by a Physician's Assitant and she quickly told us it was MRSA (nasty stuff) without even really doing a full examination or anything. Kelton hadn't touched anything hot to have a blister from, but the P.A. didn't believe me, so she went ahead and popped the blister and took a culture. Kelton was given a bandaid, ointment, and wrap to keep him from ripping of the bandaid. Then we were told that if the culture grew anything, we'd be given a call. We went ahead and continued to live our normal lives. Then I noticed his rash spreading to his ankles, arms, groin, and belly. Not sure where this was coming from and wondering if it was from my poor housekeeping skills, I decided to bleach his entire room. Toys, walls, books, wash bedding, etc. Then my mom recommended that I call the E.R. to see what the lab results were. Remember that I was told that they'd call me if anything grew. And keep in mind that it's been a week's time pass. I was given the run around, so I called Mom. She called the hospital and set a fire under a few people. Finally, I was called by another doctor who told me Kelton had Staph! LOVELY, that would've been nice to know a WEEK ago! They called in a perscription and he's had his first dose. We'll see if they know what they're talking about?! Wish us luck!! I'll add some pictures later!
