Well Visit Office ONLY!

Dear Pediatricians Around the World,

Why is it that everytime I leave your office with my healthy son for his routine well visit, he gets sick like no other for the next three weeks? 

Case. in. Point.
18 month well visit (december 5, 2011)....healthy kiddo.

• Weekend following: Urgent care for virus (1.5 hour wait).
• Week following: Doctor for virus and double ear infection
• Weekend visit to ugent care (3 hour wait) due to unsitely rash that appeared.  VIRUS, they say.
• Week following that: Doctor visit for unimaginable rash taking over entire body and swollen limbs (turns out it's an allergic reaction). 
• Same day: trip to hospital for tests.
• Week following that: Doctor visit for check up from rash.  Back on meds for new virus and double ear infections.
• TWO weeks follow that: Back at doctor for ear infection that is still there AND pink eye. 

Perhaps we could move the well visit office to a separate office space (and not just a "separate waiting room" that has no door so it's really just one big room).  I mean I've paid enough to fully fund that new office space by now.

And, done.

Love,

Melissa
