On Friday, one of Gracie's pee-pee tests showed an elevated white blood cell count, which could indicate an infection of some sort (which would require antibiotics (and risk of thrush) and potentially delay treatment, even if only by a few days). The doctor had us take another urine sample to the lab on Friday night to confirm, but went ahead with antibiotics just in case.
Sarah was not excited about the antibiotics due to the risk of thrush, and wasn't convinced that she had an infection. So we let the doc know we wanted to wait until the results came back. They just called and the results were negative. Sarah = right. Avoiding the antibiotics in the process. YAY!

Way to go Sarah!
It's a valuable thing to know, Hyssy, that pharmaceuticals are a blunt instrument! Good for you!
BTW, EVERYBODY at my house has thrush! Nystatin 4x a day? Yuck!
Exactly what I want to avoid. Sorry you guys are still dealing with that. :(
Oh yuk, test driver, much sympathy to you. Hooray for you Sarah! Am glad that you held out!
