Ear Infections

Alex's ear infections are finally GONE!!! I wish I would have known this sooner. Here is the story:

April 15th - took Alex to the doctor and she had 2 ear infections, got on our 1st antibiotic

April 22nd - Back to the doctor, still had 2 ear infections, went on our 2nd antibiotic

May 9th - Acute Care, 1 ear infection, 3rd antibiotic (Augmenton)

May 10th - Alex was extremely sick from the antibiotic, throwing up and everything else. Had to stop the antibiotic. Started hearing about Chiropractors and their ability to help get rid of ear infections.

May 11th - Alex's first adjustment

May 12th - Alex already seems better, starts talking and eating again

May 13th - Alex's second adjustment

May 14th - Alex seems back to normal completely.

May 23rd - Doctor confirms she does NOT have an ear infection. Therefore it went away with NO drugs. I wish I would have known this earlier, going through the drugs is not fun. Having her get an adjustment is no big deal ... no crying at all. Therefore, when an ear infection comes back we will be running straight to the Chiropractor and not the pharmacy:)
