Hives.....

Last Friday night we noticed that Spencer had some spots on his arms and stomach. At first we thought chickenpox but he's been immunized for those,so we figured they were probably hives. On Saturday morning the few spots had become big patches of swollen redness.
By the afternoon he had gotten a couple under his right eye. As I sat helpless trying to figure out what else to do for him, i was watching the two spots get bigger and merge into one big spot that resembled a blister. His little feet and hands were extremely swollen. He did'nt want to walk because his feet hurt.

Later that evening I took him to the ER because the benedryl wasn't helping at all. He was given a shot of epinephrine and a script for some orapred(steroids) to help with the swelling. By Sunday afternoon he was felling a little better. After we gave him the orapred and some benedryl , the little guy slept for 16 hours! Spencer had some blood drawn today for allergy tests. We should have results in a few days.
