After taking Teagan back to the doctor yesterday and this morning, they have diagnoised her with Erythema Multiforme~minor. It is a skin condition with no known cause. It CAN be caused by environmental factors such as food, clothes, place allergy or from a 'bug' that attacks the immune system and manifests into a rash. We believe Teagan has the latter form since we haven't introduced her to anything new recently.
Last night, after putting Emmersyn to bed, I went to check on Teagan. She felt HOT so I took her temp and it was 101...her normal is 97-98 so that was way too high for her. I ended up sleeping with her fora few hours just to keep an eye on her. It felt like I had an electric blanket on, she was soooo hot and of course right on top of me it seemed. Finally, her temp got to 99 and Matt had to go to work, so I went back to my room to listen to the monitor for Emmersyn. About an hr or 2 later, Teagan got up and came in my room to sleep. Poor thing wanted her momma!
On the way to the doctor today she wanted some coke. We have been trying to cut her off coke (I know, bad parent!) but with her being sick, I wanted to give her what she wanted since she hasn't been eating well either. I no sooner got back on the highway and heard "splat"...she had thrown up ALL OVER herself, her minnie, her carseat, and the front seat...awesome!! Normally I don't have extra clothes for her but for some reason today when I packed the diaper bag, I packed Emmersyn 2 extra outfits and threw in a pair of jammies for Teagan...Thank God! Poor girl had to wear jammies out of the doctors office, but it's better than puke clothes!
I will post pics of her rash later when I have time to upload them.
