ACK!!!
Folks, if it IS allergies, it is 'okay'. BUT, I want to first make sure that there isn't an untreated sinus infection (like last year). I don't think 1 week of itchy eyes (though Jonah doesn't say they itch, he says they are watery/wet), makes an allergy. I have not meant to offend any single person that suffers from allergies. Really, it is not a big deal. BUT, to have a doctor tell me, "well, he is just an allergy child" (or something along those lines) inspite of no symptoms to speak of, seems a bit off. It IS a dx used when nothing else matches up.
I do not want Jonah on allergy medication if he doesn't have allergies. Surely, that makes some sense? To begin an allergy medication on top of a second course of antibiotics (which, btw, I didn't ask/seek, it was plain to the md that there is a sinus infection running rampant in Jonah's nose, hence the comment, "your face is a mess"), rules out the ability to ascertain (short of allergy testing) what the problem is.
If things don't clear up, I will have Jonan allergy tested. I swear.
On the filter thingy, I do switch it regularly, but, my furnace is old, the filters are cheap, and I am not sure how effective it is. I could always improve my dusting/vacuuming, too. And, wash in hot water.
