[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS tested negative for strep (insta test) but had near-constant vomiting for 2 days. Went back to ped. who sent us to ER: Zofran + sodas there prevented IV insertion, but first had abdominal scan - doctors were concerned. He lost 8 lbs he couldn’t afford to lose. Missed a week of school. [/quote] How many rounds? Did they keep giving the same one?[/quote] PP and yes - he tested positive post ER. IIRC (and this was 12 years ago), the ped office called to say that insta strep test “turned” positive. He had one round of antibiotics. Recovered quickly once Zofran on board, better hydrated + antibiotics.[/quote]
