A sickly week

Joian has been having fever since last Thursday, and he started having bad cough since last Saturday night. Went to see a GP on Sunday, but he did not get any better. So on Monday, hubby brought him to see his PD. Due to his up-down fever for many days, PD prescibed antibiotics for him. However after 2 doses of antibiotics, he developed rashes. So we went to PD again. PD couldn't diagnosed if the rashes were due to the medicine or otherwise, so we stopped the antibiotics and monitored him.
His fever again came back on Thursday, and we went to see PD again. This time PD decided to do a blood test and a CRP test. She said the CRP test was to be done just in case the blood test results was not sufficient enough. At the meantime, PD attached a urine bag to him, cos need to do a urine test, in order to know if it is urine infection. The nurse told us to be around the clinic so that once he passed urine, she could do the urine test immediately. But we waited for an hour plus, still no urine. So we went home to wait for the blood test results.
The results came back in the afternoon. Too many results, the only thing I remembered was that the CRP reading was very high, so PD said Joian was to do an X-ray... so on the same day, we went Sengkang Polyclinic to do the X-ray. Another traumatising experience for my boy, cos during the drawing of blood, Joian was really very frightened, he kept on crying, really very poor boy. We waited for 45 minutes for the X-ray to be ready.
We then went to see PD in the evening. PD said the X-ray showed some markings on right lung, but luckily they were not so significant. Hence based on the blood test results and CRP results, PD decided to treat Joian's illness as bacteria infection instead of viral infection. I asked the PD the difference between the 2. She told me that there is no treatment for viral infection, but for bacteria infection, it can be treated with antibiotics. So Joian was put under another course of antibiotics, and we were to return on Monday for review.
Hope darling will recover soon.... he has to take so many medicine these days...
PS. mummy me is also sick... sigh.... so he may not recover so fast...
