Test results

To remind everyone, when Sophie was at the doctor a couple weeks ago when she was super sick they did a whole bunch of tests, 2 of which (Epstein Barr virus, and Parvo B19), were going to take a couple weeks until we saw resluts. For those of you who are not aware of what Parvo B19 is I will give you a little bit of what I know. Parvo B19 are antibodies that one would develop if they have ever had Fifth's disease. When she first started with that rash a few weeks ago he said we could try to test her for the B19 antibodies to see if that was in fact what she had. She tested positive for that so that means that yes, she did have Fifth's disease. Here is a little of what I know regarding Epstein Barr....well, nevermind, just check out this link. Basically, Epstein-Barr turns into mono in most people. Some go one without any symptoms at all, others according to Dr. Kramer, can get very sick. Her fever, sore throat, swollen glands, vomiting, blah blah blah, was all due to this virus. Since she has been doing great. Her appetite is actually better than I have ever seen it, and she gained back all the weight that she lost, and then some. I am pretty sure that we all had the Fifth's disease, including Frankie, but Bella and Sophie were the ones who got really yucky and sick. I still keep holding my breath since Frankie never did get the stomach bug, but I think too much time has past and she is safe. YAY!
