doctor appt friday for DS (sicky, off-balance, bad ears)

1000 replies

EdgarAleNPie · 23/02/2011 18:15

right - he's had an anti-biotic ear spray for two weeks. he has been particularly sick the past week so its doing bugger all

my plan for friday is to ask

-for heavy oral anti-bs to realy kick the infection (if it is bacterial, as if its in the inner ear an exterior spray won't touch it).
-for a referral to a paediatrician (which i can always cancel if he gets better before it coes through)

  • anti-emetics/ anti nausea pills? he's been keeping very little food down. quite thin.

how does that sound for a plan?

he already saw audiology, they said 'yes, there's fluid in his ear.' is there any point in seeing them again?

He's now been down with this since November. Gone from running and kicking a ball to staggering around the house and falling over. can't manage more than a few yards without support.

ok, any thoughts?

oh my god Edgar!
I have been reading this thread and catching up now and then, but hadn't posted until now.

I can't believe this has happened.

I don't even know what to say because anything I post seems kind of stupid and meaningless, but i'm thinking of you and all of your family and your wonderful, brave little boy.

so, so sorry

So very sorry to hear the awful news about your precious little man. There is no death so sad as that of a child. I have walked the difficult road, that you are starting out on, twice before. My thoughts and love go out to you and your family.

our special thread

I am glad to say I 'belong' to what I consider the greatest thread on MN. A group of Mums who have all been 'where' you are right now. We dont judge each other and we all talk freely and share our sadness, happiness and a 1,000 other emotions.

Wish I could help more.....take care xxxx
