[QUOTE="Andy, post: 288508, member: 5096"] difficult child has a rash on his chest that started to move to his back. It looked like a heat rash to me but when it did not clear up in a week, I took him into a walk-in children's clinic. The doctor there confirmed it was a heat rash and placed him on antibiotics as precaution to avoid infection in the event it continued to get worse. It cleared up a little in the 10 days of the antibiotic but not completely (I would say 75% clearer). Within this 10 days, we had our 5 day family vacation. The weather was cool and he wore pants and a jacket much of the time. I just don't see that the weather contributed to the "heat" rash continuing and it should have cleared up completely if it was truly a heat rash. The psychiatrist thinks it may be caused by the prozac (so, I suppose I should have reported the rash to his office - I don't always know what can be related to the medications or is just everyday medical issues for a pediatrician doctor to address) so he is switching him to a different medication to see if that will help. Although it does appear to be a wait and see situation, I will call and report it to psychiatrist for his input tomorrow morning and let him know if it does not disappear. I will not give difficult child the new vitamins in the morning (just the Celexa and the 50 mg B-2 that he has been getting every morning). Thank you! [/QUOTE]
