[quote=Anonymous]My nanny took my 5 yo to her friend's house for lunch. The friend has a dog, and my child seems to be having an allergic reaction - nanny says he has bumps around his eyes, and it sounded like hives. I told her to see if they have children's benedryl and to give him that and bring him home and to monitor his breathing and call me immediately if it seems like his breathing is in trouble and we will meet at the ER. I have never dealt with an allergy before. Is this the correct course of action, or is there something else I should be doing or watching out for? We are military and it is virtually impossible for me to reach his primary care physician directly. I have to call an 800 number, ask them to call the provider, and the provider calls me back in around 48 hours. So, looking for some more immediate advice. Thanks. [/quote]
