How we found out Alex was allergic to Amoxicillin

A few weeks ago, Alex got sick with strep throat. He is pretty hyper so when he isn't feeling well you know it. He was put on Amoxicillin for a couple of days and by the second day, Ben noticed a rash. It really wasn't too bad and we thought maybe he had had some peanuts, which make him break out in a rash. Within about an hour, he came to us crying and just itching. It had got really bad. Ben somehow figured to read on the internet about the medicine he was on and found out it can cause a rash. So we stopped the medicine and got him on a new one. Then within about a week, Jeremy came down with Strep. He had complained about having a stiff neck the same day that he got an adjustment from a chiropractor friend of ours. I thought it was from that and told him it would go away. After treating him for a couple of days thinking it was that and Jeremy crying and finally not being able to turn or tilt his head, I took him in. Strep! But now thankfully they are both healthy.
