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?

DaftApeth · 18/03/2011 14:49

Edgar, so sorry t hear this news. I have been following your thread for a little while. You have been through so much and sounded so strong for your little boy on this roller coaster you have been on.

It was lively to hear about the lovely moments you remember about your ds. From the sound of him, he was a little gem. I hope that all those happy memories help you through, I'm sure there are plenty more lovely moments to remember from his short life. Much much too short.
