Headaches

Our boy has been having some sharp stabbing pain in his temple for 4 days. It has been getting worse and every bad thing starts running through my head. Drew took Kota and I to Urgent Care so we could have him checked out.

He was not at all amused that I was taking his picture while he was laying in bed in pain. I told him it is my responsibility to document everything so he had to let me. :)

Turns out he has cluster migraines. The doctor didn't find anything neurologically wrong with him in the tests she did. That is very good news. Unfortunately, he will probably have these headaches for the rest of his life. My poor baby.

The doctor prescribed some Tylenol 3 and mom and dad prescribed a blizzard. We are hoping the medicine works, if not he will need to have a CT Scan and possibly a MRI.

We also had his knee looked at. A few weeks ago he decided it would be fun to ride his cousins tricycle. The trike didn't survive the ride and Dakota landed on his knee. The knee is swollen and painful but it is nothing serious, just some fluid on the knee cap. The doctor told us that his growth plates have big gaps in them and she expects him to grow 6" in the next year or two.

My baby is only 2" shorter than me and is not going to be 13 until next week. Sounds like I may be looking up at him before he turns 14. Oy Vey!!
