UGH.... everything was going so well and yesterday we spent the day at the beach. Yesterday morning, we noticed that Sara was starting to get a rash. She has such sensitive skin, we chalked it up to the sunscreen I put on her as it started shortly after that. We gave her some Benadryl, bought different sunscreen and laid around on the beach.
Last night she came home with a good bit of sunburn, even after gooping her up with sunscreen over and over again yesterday. This morning, the rash was now covering her from head to to and I was started to get concerned. We went and had bagels and while sitting there, we realized that it was time for her to get looked at.
After waiting forever in the ER... Ok, it was less then two hours... but it felt like forever, a dr took one look at her and said she definitely has a drug rash and we were to stop her medication immediately. BUMMER.
After getting out of the ER, I called the psychiatrist and the on-call dr told me to stop immediately, give her a dose of Benadryl and call the office in the morning to get something else. Total bummer, because I think we liked this medication.
It will be interesting to see if she sleeps tonight or not when she doesn't receive her regular dose tonight. In the meantime, we are all going to lay done and take a nap. This sucks.
