switched pediatricians

called the new ped and made an appt. called the old ped and cancelled the appt and asked about records transfer. i'm not sure why this is bothering me so much. they are nice people but they have sold their souls to the drug reps. i think it's nostalgia for when sylvia was teeny tiny as opposed to just being quite small.

Rinocort is pretty nifty stuff. Keeps my allergies nicely in check, and can reduce the intensity of sinus problems when I have a cold. I assume that's why the want her to use it? To prevent sinus buildup that will back up into the ear canal?

I haven't told everyone the SAGA OF THE EARS OF SARAH?
Hmmm.... thought I had. All I know is that the Rhinocort doesn't seem to be working so well (though sarah was amused at the thought that it might be made of rhinos! She giggled and gave ben a look that said he was clearly not as smart as she'd thought *grin*). She still seems a bit stuffy. Perhaps she takes after me and has "non-allergic rhinitis" instead of allergies (this means that she gets all the fun stuff of allergies, such as congestion, itchy eyes, etc., but it's not ACTUALLY allergies, so NO FRELLING MEDICINES WORK ON IT)

*ahem*
See my journal entry for tonight to get the story of the ears and treatments
I'm not cool, so I don't know how to put a link in. sorry!
