Hospital with DS

DS has been running high fever since Monday with no other symptoms other than decreased appetite. We attributed it to a virus or flu. Went to the ER Wednesday night because fever was so high. For the most part fever has been easily supressed by tylenol or motrin. Dr at ER determined it to be viral as well.

Rewind to a week ago, last Saturday, DS swallowed a piece of a toy that broke. Likely a piece of metal from inside of it. No GI upset, no diarrhea, no constipation. So we assumed it had passed.

Fast forward back to today. DS is still no better. Strep and flu are negative. So now we have had blood drawn for tests and are waiting for xrays.
