Only a week into summer vacation and we have hit a snag. Alison has been feeling pretty crummy lately, and she had been complaining of a sore throat since the start of June. Kris and I were hoping that it would clear up, but her tonsils are so huge that the one on the left side is almost touching her uvula. So on Tuesday we decided to finally take her in to have a throat culture done. I thought for sure she had strep.
The rapid strep test came back negative, but that doesn't mean too much since they usually do, and then a day or two later when the full culture is done, we usually get a call saying that she has strep throat. But the doctor told Kris to just keep an eye on it, if the full test did come back positive they would call, but if it didn't and there was no sign of improvement by Friday, to call and get her back in. Well so far there has been no call and her throat has not improved, so first thing tomorrow morning, Kris will be calling to get Ali back in and see if they can figure out what is going on. This is definitely not the way to start off the summer, especially with girl scout camp coming up next week. I sure hope she is better by then.
