Today we brought Alycia and Sherilyn to the paed's clinic again. They are still under the weather and have been coughing a lot, especially Sherilyn. I did not sleep well the whole of last night. Each time Sherilyn coughed, I would get startled, worried that my Miss Pukey will puke as she is very prone to puking when she coughs. She also has lots of phlegm and when she woke up this morning, she puked out some phlegm.
The paed prescribed Alycia with another bottle of Procef antibiotics which she has to take for 2 more days (total of 7 days) as her throat and glands are still a tad swollen. She is still sneezing and coughing. Sherilyn also has to have the antibiotics (Augmentin) extended by another 2 days (total of 7 days) as her throat is still slightly swollen and her cough / phlegm are quite bad.
Feeding of medicine is really time consuming and can take up to an hour for both gals as my maid and I have to feed them the medicine drop by drop followed by a bite of sweet bun / biscuit after every drop of medicine. Even with this, they can still puke. After puking, the whole cycle has to begin again. This is really draining me out....
