Doctor Visit Update

This is Jillian while we were waiting for the doctor in the ER. We were there from 6ish till almost midnight. UGH! We were only in the waiting room MAYBE an hour, so we figured it would be in and out. So while we were waiting we snagged some of the gloves in there and allowed her to check over her penguin.

We went into the ENT and he was a really nice guy and very friendly with Jillian and allowed her to sit on my lap to get checked out. She was a little weirded out by having him looking up her nose, but did well.

He told us that the Allergy medicine we were told to give her, was actually making it worse. He told us to go ahead and put saline in her nose once a day and vaseline twice a day. He said if in a few weeks it has not gotten better, then he will do a procedure that will stop the bleeding. We are hoping this will be enough.

She has not had a nosebleed since the day we went to the ENT, we put her to bed with the vaseline and she was sticking her finger in it wondering what the heck I had put in her nose and caused it to bleed. Though since then she is great, no nosebleeds! YAY!
