Hives

Initially, it looked like Bryce had gotten a bunch of bug bites after we were at the zoo on Friday. However, by Sunday, we knew he had some kind of severe rash. Sure enough, Bryce has hives. We haven't tried any new foods or medicine lately so we know it's not that. I think he got the rash from the zoo. The zoo has a great water area where the kids can play in the sand and water. I caught him a few times drinking the water. That is what I suspect happened but don't know for sure.

To clear up the hives, he's taking benedryl four times a day. Poor guy also has a mild ear infection in his left ear. The hives could last just a few days or up to two weeks. Let's pray the benedryl clears him up quickly!

Oh, we also got an EpiPen prescribed to us. Bryce hasn't had any respiratory distress with this outbreak but hives are associated with anaphylaxis shock. Just in case, we now have an EpiPen in our lives.
