So (yay) it doesn't look like Trio has pink eye; I think it was just allergies because the drops his doctor gave him yesterday cleared up the eye gunk pretty well. Does he like it? No it is a two person job putting them in (someone could make a lot of money if they could invent an easier way to put eye drops in) but the eye gunk is almost gone so he'll have to deal with it.
However to his doctor it sounded like he was wheezing so she decided to give him a breathing treatment especially after I told her there was a history of asthma in my family. So the nurse came in with the machine and a cool little dinosaur mask to go on his face. I said "Look Trio it's a dinosaur RAWR!!"
Trio was still less than impressed with the whole thing. He screamed for the full fifteen minutes. The doc came in and said it sounded like it helped so she was going to get him an inhaler (not the regular albe-whatever since he has a heart condition but a different kind). Here is where I really like his doc; she could have been mean and given us a machine that took fifteen minutes but she gave us something called an "OptiChamber" which is this long tube you just stick on his mouth and squirt the inhaler to. Does he like this any better? No but it is quicker because you place the mask on his face, squirt, wait ten seconds and repeat and then you're done. Two minutes vs fifteen in the Trio world is just smart math.
So that's it. So far everything helps but we'll see in the long run although so far I am happy with the results and that I don't have to spend more money on a pink eye medication (man the two yesterday were expensive b/c there was no generic to substitute). More later on my later dude!!
