He has three days

I took Matt to the ER this morning and they are giving him three days. They think he has a strain that is resistent to the augmentin because it doesn't seem to have touched it. They gave him another shot and two prescriptions for more antibiotics to take in addition to the augmentin. If he isn't feeling 100 times better by Monday they will admit him.

His oxygen levels are still low. They fluctuate around 90-92, sometimes going into the high eighties. They put him on oxygen and it made it a lot easier to breather but after a while it was driving him nuts so he took it off(they told him he could).

Make sure you monitor him. You don't want to have to admit him, but maybe the breathing treatments that they give you in the hospital they tend to help you get over it sooner instead of later. Anyhow watch him and give him my luv.
