Hunter has been on Amoxacillian for an ear infection. He was on his last dose, on his 10th day, and he woke up with weird spots all over and a fever. I thought he had somehow gotten chickenpox. I felt so bad for him. He looked and acted like he felt so miserable. He took him immediatly to the doctor and was told that he was having an allergic reaction to his antibiotic. When i told them that Brandon was allergic to Penacillian they said that their was no conection and that it is not genetic. They also told me that it was gonna get alot worse before it got better. I just wasn't prepared for how bad it really got. Heat made it worse so we had to keep the house really cold and put as little clothing on him as possible.
Thank goodness, he woke up today with no more spots.

oh my gosh! that poor kid, it really does look bad! i hope he gets to feeling better soon, for his sake and yours!
You don't know me, but I need to say thank you. My daughter Molly is 2, she had her first ear infection about 10 days ago. And on day 9 of her anti-biotics she had the rash your son had all over her and the doc says allergic reaction, but never said it would get worse. I have been searching the internet for information to back up what this was - and these pictures are exactly what we have going on.
SO THANK YOU!
