"The Medical Mystery"

I took Darcy back to her pediatrician today as her cough hasn't gone away and actually gotten much worse. Her doctor called her a "medical mystery" as we've ruled out asthma and allergies, removed her adenoids and inserted ear tubes, and yet she continues to have all of this mucous that leads to a post nasal drip cough and sinus infections. She gave me a couple of different cough syrups to treat the symptoms and hopefully give her some rest, but referred me back to our ENT specialist to see if she has any suggestions as to what the root cause might be.

Unfortunately, the earliest the ENT could get us in is August 19 so I'm crossing my fingers that we make it a month without the current cough turning into another sinus infection or bronchitis again. We're on the waiting list so maybe something will open up sooner.

Anyway, she has been pretty pitiful today, coughing her head off and even running a little fever this evening. I just want my baby to feel better!
