My 9 month old daughter survived her first ear infection. I first noticed that she had a fever hovering around around 102-F. She didn't have a runny nose, she wasn't pulling her ears, but she was eating less and seemed a bit unlike herself. After the third day of this, I decided to take her to the pediatrician and found that she had an infection in one of her ears. Once her prescription was filled, I just knew that things would be back to normal. Unfortunately that did not happen. The day after she took her medication, not only did she vomit and still refuse to drink her milk, she also developed a rash. This went on for another 3 days until I felt something had to be done. The doctor initially thought that it may have been the fever or an allergy to the dye in her Tylenol, but after a discussion, it was concluded that my daughter is allergic to a particular antibiotic. Luckily the ear infection was gone by then. After discontinuing the medication, my little girl was her happy go lucky self again.
