My toddler has suffered from frequent ENT infections since she was a baby. Mostly ear infections. She has delayed speech and communication as well as questionable hearing (although impossible to get a retest via NHS and private don't test under 3s where I am).
She was diagnosed with glue ear and managed to get her grommets out, I questioned if she could get het adenoids out - surgeon said wait and see as grommets usually solve the problem.
Well, 3 months later the problem hasn't been solved as although the glue ear may have cleared there is still significant pressure from the swollen adenoids so hearing and speech delay is still a major issue. I have tried to contact consultant but have just been told to wait until review which is almost a year away.
What do I do? I am fortunate enough if it comes to it we can go private, however we are under ENT care which is the hard bit.
Has anyone been through getting grommets in and the hearing loss not not being resolved until adenoid removal?
