Makayla started showing symptoms of illness on Sunday. On Monday she got worse. We visited the ER three times in four days. Today she went back to the doctor to have her ears checked. Four days of oral antibiotics and one day of an antibiotic injection didn't phase her infected ear. She has apparently grown a resistence to these meds. So therefore she has been admitted to the hospital for IV antibiotics. Will this happen again when she gets her next ear infection? Shew...I hope not. But we definatly need to consult with the ENT to discuss the next steps.
