Pneumonia

So Ryleigh had been coughing off and on for a few weeks. When we saw her ped at her 2 year visit on 2/9 I told him we'd be back and he said to be optimistic...yeah ok.
So Saturday she woke up very congested and coughing like crazy so I take her in at 10:30. He checks her over, no fever, ears are good, chest sounds clear and gives us an antibiotic for a sinus infection. Saturday afternoon she is burning up. I take her home and she has 102.7. Sunday she's up to 103.6! I'm freaking out calling the physician's exchange and they say as long as she's drinking and moving around they don't worry until 105! I was shocked. She's coughing so much she's throwing up and so today I called the doc back. She hadn't eaten anything since Saturday and was still running a fever. We go in at 12p and he sticks a long swab up her nose to test the mucus, takes x-rays and tapes a urine bag to her to collect a urine sample. We were there and hour and the entire time she is screaming. He comes back and shows me the x-rays...pneumonia! I couldn't believe it but was glad I decided to call him back today and go in.
He then gave us the option of different antibiotics or hospital. He felt that kids seem to do better in their own environment so his recommendation was to try the antibiotics. If she's still running a fever in 48 hours (about 99.5) or still wheezing (that's another thing I've had to give breathing treatments every 4 hours!). So she's on augmention which I'm not a fan of either since it causes bad (and I do mean bad) diarrhea but it's better than sitting in a hospital room right now.
So far she's actually doing a little better. She ate some french fries (great I know but she loves them so I thought I'd at least try) and played some this evening. She's been in bed for 30 minutes and I've heard zero coughing out of her so hopefully I can finally get some much needed rest tonight!
