RSV

My poor girls were diagnosed with RSV last week. They have been sick pretty much since we moved down to Vegas. I hesitated taking them to the doctor because I had heard so many stories of doctors saying there was nothing they could do and just to use a humidifier and vicks...both of which we were already doing. But when Audrey started coughing so hard she started puking I took the advice of my oldest sister Kristy and called around to find a doctor. This was the most frustrating part for me because most of the doctors wouldn't see us because we were new patients and their "new patient" wait was 2 weeks out. Even though I had a very sick baby they wouldn't see us! I was so upset and bawling and frustrated. But finally I found a doctor by our new home in a brand new office. His hair and clothes were a little strange but he was really good and gave me treatment plans and medicine. He even did a quick check on Kirsten even though the appointment was only for Audrey and didn't charge me. So the girls are on antibiotics, a breathing treatment, and a nasal spray in addition to all the other usual treatment. I'm very grateful our insurance started right away, covered prescriptions, and for a doctor who not only saw us but helped us find a cure for my sick babies. We aren't 100% better yet, but are feeling much better.
