Didn't mean to leave anyone hanging

Brian is much better. We both slept well through the night, although I admit I woke up a couple of times and looked at him to make sure. He went on into work today and when he was finally able to talk to his allergist, the allergist confirmed our suspicions that the reaction he had last night was due to some Motrin he took an hour or so beforehand. Apparently when he is already having issues with his urticaria, NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) often cause this type of reaction. So now he needs to stay away from ibuprofen. Brian is just happy he doesn't have to take the 21-day prednisone regimen the P.A. from the ER prescribed.

Ok, so I don't look at your blog for a couple of days and Brian goes to the ER. Whoah... glad he's doing better. I hate those allergic reactions. Give him a hug from us.
