I love your picture of your “back seat driver” and I agree with Jaimee, now I too am craving a chocolate banana milkshake!

You are so funny! Love this because it’s so simple and I can picture every moment. The metaphor is hilarious, keep it up. Makes me want a milkshake and some cheese sticks, I am still doing low-carb, craving a little bit of the good stuff now and then.

Ps. It seems that only on your blog comments do I have terrible grammar. Just had to point that out.

I’m sorry you still feel bad still. It seems that any time I get a cold, I always have sinus pain (and sometimes infections). I LIVE by the Neti Pot when that happens.

I hope you start feeling better soon.

If they have to do a urine test, do the baggie thing. We’ve done both and the baggie way is MUCH easier on the child (and the parents). For testing for blood in the urine they’ve always made us do a urine sample. No fun, but the best results they tell me.

If you do want a second opinion, see Dr. Rand. He’s the pediatric infectious disease doctor here in Boise and also a pediatrician (meaning no extra money for seeing a specialist). He’s good and could help figure out your next steps.

Get a second opinion, and probably not from anyone at the place you are currently going.

“did not think it was that because of the hives” — ummm “palpable purpura” sounds a lot like hives? No I am not a doctor, I’ve not seen Belen’s spots, and I really have to wonder if a blood screening could be done simply by spraying some blood detector stuff (yeah, that’s the technical term) into a freshly diaper and seeing what happens — if blood is the only thing being sought).

If the frequency is truly 1 in 100,000 as suggested by the wikipedia article, you probably need to find a specialist, and possibly somewhere with a larger population (Salt Lake City, maybe?) and teaching schools.

Best of luck in a happy diagnosis.

If you fear the amoxycillin, pump to keep your production moving, and feed formula.

No, you didn’t ask for solutions, you know me — I’m an engineer always looking for solutions…
