Well - back from the dr and they admittedly have no clue. The 2 suggestions were (1) environmental allergies {obviously not since he's been asleep for 4 hours since coming home and now finally is spiking a fever} and (2) a resurgence of mono {I forgot to mention that we had a bunch of bloodwork done in October and they proved that he'd had mono, probably recently, in fact likely approximately coinciding with the first in the run of 4 strep diagnoses}.

I've read through your posts and it's amazing how similar our experiences are. I would love to keep in touch. Brownie
