Ugh. This blows! School JUST started last Thursday. Sunday morning my youngest started complaining of chest pain and a cough. He napped and woke up later in the day absolutely burning up with fever and feeling awful. Of course I figured it was covid and we began taking precautions and separating him from his older brother (they share a room and neither has had covid yet). Later that evening, he threw up. Covid test was negative. He has a super severe sore throat and it's now day 3 of fever.
Fast forward to today. Older son woke up feeling sick to his stomach and went back to sleep only to wake up to throw up. He is in the adult transition program for special needs adults so he is now missing the first full week of that after going for only 3 days.
I actually don't think it's covid, though. Younger sons three tests have all been negative. I did take him yesterday to the CVS drive thru for a combination Flu/Covid PCR tests so we are waiting on those results.
Is anyone else dealing with kids illness this soon after school starting up again? Seems too early for flu, but at this point, it seems like there is no rhyme or reason to viruses in circulation.
