Infectious...continued
Last night the streaking of infection didn't move up my arm at all. So no ER visit for me, phew! I headed in to see the doctor again early this morning. And thank heavens for wonderful friends!!! Kaitlyn took E for me so I only had to take Maxwell with me. Bless you, Kaitlyn!!! The doctor I saw the first time wasn't on today so I was seen by another doctor today. Thank goodness I marked my arm where the streaking was so the doctor could see that it hadn't progressed. It's even lightened quite a bit. She thinks that things look like they're getting better, but they have to see me again in 48 hours to be sure that things are continuing to look good. So I'll be sitting in the urgent care on Sunday right before my Max's baby blessing. Help us all! I asked her if it really was necessary if everything looked better and she said that I HAD to come in since this is not something to mess with. So the streaking is better, my thumb is still twice the normal size, but the throbbing has subsided. Max hasn't seemed to have any trouble with the antibiotics in my milk, but I'm still keeping a look out for any reaction so we'll see. Right now I'm just looking forward to a fun Halloween night with the fam!

Man, that truly is a spooky Halloween story--scary pumpkins infecting innocent humans!
