And the verdict is...

Mac has asthma. We were not surprised at all. Dr. Kagy (the dr. he saw at the AR Allergy and Asthma Clinic) was wonderful!! She has given him a type of inhaled medicine to take twice a day, and she also gave him a rescue inhaler. He has to stay on his Singular so it will help, too. He did, however, pass his allergy test. We have to go back on Dec. 15 to see Dr. Kagy and the respiratory therapist to evaluate how the medicines she put him on are working. Then we go back in a year for allergy testing again. At least now we have answers.
On the other hand, Emma is sick now. Randall took her to see Dr. McAdams yesterday because Dr. Thomas was off. Her tonsils were swollen and she had a sore throat. Dr. M said this is going around, and it usually has a fever or 100-101 with it. He said she needed to stay home today again from daycare and see how she feels. I felt bad because she told me Sunday that her throat hurt, but I thought it was because she knew we were taking Mac to the doctor on Monday!!
