My son is being tested for immune deficiency due to too many ear,chest ,water and viral infections. His now 18 months old and has been on antibiotics at least 15+ times with some being giving via Iv route. I also have immune deficiency and spent most my childhood in and out of hospital on transfusions to boost antibodies up......could my son have this due to my past health problems?...there's a lot of medical issues ATM with him eg epilepsy and behavioural issues as well so I'm very busy and sometimes stressed as don't know weather I'm coming or going as I also work and it's causing an impact on my work due to him being unwell all the time...has anyone been in this situation before and what was the outcome? I was also put down to being a paranoid mother but when he's always ill on antibiotics you'd think alarm bells would ring with my gp but I was fobbed off so I took things further myself and paediatric dr agreed and finally something being done
