Jennifer, thanks for the advice. You are right that i would hesitate to go to the ER but had i not been better last night i think i would have anyway. I remember once asking the doctor to draw blood because i was so sick and they couldnt figure out what was wrong with me and after they did they found out i contracted some bacteria that was from out of the country and i hadnt been out of the country. Later on they figured out my daughters peds nurse had the same bacteria and she was out of the country and i had taken my daugther in for a check up. I should have been more insistent and your email would have made me feel justified in going so thank you. HUGS Barb Boran [email protected]
