Evening all, or should it be morning for tomorrow?
We've had a bit of a drama here, D came out in a bit of a rash Sunday afternoon, and I decided I'd better take him to the doctor Monday morning, so phoned work, dropped round to see CM on way to surgery, got an emergency appointment at 9.30 (it was gone 9 am at the time, was quite impressed that they did that for us). D had lots of spots but didn't really seem ill, was running around the waiting room and then trying to get into the GP's cupboards and drawers. Our practice is a father daughter practice, we usually see daughter but we saw the dad yesterday. Anyway, he called her in for a second opinion, they decided it wasn't meningitis but thought it might be something viral, and then referred us to the paediatric A&E at the hospital.
Unfortunately, our nearest hospital is a bit of a pain to get to with no car, it's on the North Circular and only a couple of very infrequent buses stop on site, the others go close but you have to find your way across some very unpleasant concrete jungle...
After all this, we waited ages, dp joined us, and the doctor finally told us he thought D has an allergy.
We think it might be fabric conditioner that's causing it, so we're going to have to rewash all his clothes without using conditioner, then try and get them dry. Hope there's some good drying weather the next few days.
