    Oh my goodness! You must have been so frightened. I'm glad you are home now and it seems like you got excellent treatment at the hospital. Hopefully your wee one feels better soon and you can work out her allergy

    Did the medicine have colouring in it? My DD2 is allergic to penicillin in any shape or form and also couldn't have liquid medicine with certain colours

    Hope the rash settles soon. Let your chemist know as they can put it on their records in case she is prescribed it again. This happened to DD2 recently which would have been really bad. I am so greatful to this chemist that he checked the script and kept it to ring the Dr himself.

    Oh dear! I'm glad that DD is having a big sleep, she will be doing her best to get rid of all this too. Hope you find out what the culprit is that gave her the reaction.

    Thanks girls It was so damn scary. We were so worried the swelling would get to her throat. I have so much admiration for parents coping with sick children. It scared the hell out of both DH and I but especially me, I completely panicked - I was hopeless! So glad DH kept calm. Gosh, so glad he was home from his business trip. I can't stop thinking what could have happened if it was even more severe - while she was sleeping

    So glad she's ok. She's still sleeping and looks fine, thankfully. I'm so drained, emotionally exhausted
