Wheezing cough/runny nose AND vomitting/diarrhea?

Alice went from a minor runny nose and slight cough yesterday/this afternoon to a wheezing cough, diarrhea and vomitting up everything she eats (including Pedialyte) with a fever this evening. Usually it's really more one or the other. Any ideas what is going on?

I'm going to call the pedi in the morning, just wondering what on Earth is going on.

DS had all those symptoms, minus the vomiting last week. He ended up having Croup, poor little man was super sick over thanksgiving. Do you have a vaporizer or a cool mister that you could set up for her? That's what they had me do for DS, and give Motrin/Tylenol, and keep him hydrated. Poor Alice.

We have the humidifier going, just dosed her up on Motrin, and her mattress is elevated but she is throwing up literally everything she eats... tried to sneak in an ounce of pedialyte when she woke up crying and she promptly threw it up all over me and then dry heaved for another 2-3 mins. It was awful.

Charlotte has had a runny nose for two days and has coughed like twice. It's so weird that Charlotte always gets everything first, but barely, and then Alice gets an awful case a couple of days later.

Poor little girl!  I hope she feels better soon. 

An aside, did your insurance ever approve the RSV vaccines for the girls?

Poor little thing. Does your pedi have an on call number where you could talk to someone?

Of course not. They just called like two days ago to tell me that our formal appeal was denied... which occured after denying it in general, denying it after a peer-to-peer review with our pedi, and then the formal appeal denial, which ignored a letter of medical necessity from our pedi.

God knows my baby who gets a wheezing cough from every bug doesn't need an RSV vaccine.

Don't even get me started. If she ends up getting RSV, someone is going to have to hold me back from personally killing everyone involved in the denials (and the office is local).

I just faxed in the appeal to my company. It's our last chance.
