His gums were almost white and his breathing was labored as they took him to treat him. He's going to be fine. He responded well to a combination of Benadryl, steriods, and hydration. They are keeping him over night to monitor his condition closely. His blood pressure was very low at first but he was much better and acting more like himself by the time we got to see him. It broke my heart to leave him at the hospital. This night has been terrifying. |
Be very careful with this kind of allergy. I lost my Lexi to this kind of thing and it happened so fast...not sure if it was a bee or something else she was so very allergic to. But something outside. I am glad he is doing okay Prayers being sent
