[quote=Anonymous]I have held my 5 year old son down twice in the past month for a strep test. I started with bribes and moved to threats and then just held him down. Now I threaten him with a really big shot since he doesn't like the taste of the antibiotics. It does make a difference who does the test because the nurse at the Ped office did a super good job while the nurse at the minute clinic was worse. (both tests - non-rapid were positive he didn't get a strong enough antibiotic the first time and it came back) Please do not ask your doctor for an antibiotic that isn't medically necessary. This article scared the crap out of me: http://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2016/05/the-ten-part-plan-to-avert-our-post-antibiotic-apocalypse/483360/[/quote]
