Poor Evelyn gets RSV

Evelyn started getting sick on February 18th and by Tuesday February 22nd we were worried. She was coughing a ton and not eating much. We took her into the Doctor around 11am on Tuesday, the doctor was concerned she had RSV, but at that time her pulse ox was 92, which is still good. She told me she thought I should come back later in the day to get her checked again just to be safe. We got back to the doctor around 4:30pm. When we first got there, her pulse ox was still 92 or so. We waited about 30 minutes and it had dropped to 88, which is not ideal. The doctor likes it to stay above 90. She warned us than that we would have to go to the hospital to get some oxygen and monitor her, but that she could probably go home that night. 30 minutes later the story changes again. They checked her pulse ox again and it was fluctuating between 80 and 86, which obviously worried the doctor since she called an ambulance and shipped us to PSL hospital in Denver. With RSV they worry about the oxygen level and dehydration. Evelyn never got dehydrated which was great but the RSV did cause a double ear infection and a fever of 101. Needless to say we were in the Hospital for 2 days being monitored and Evelyn was placed on oxygen. By the time we were able to come home, the double ear infection was under control and Evelyn was doing so much better that she was reduced to only having oxygen while she slept. She was on the oxygen while sleeping for another week. She is much better now!! Back to her happy self. Hopefully we will never have to go through this again!!!!
