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?

Edgar I am so so sorry you are going through this .

You did everything you could do , as others have already said do come and talk to us on the bereaved mums thread . I know it is the one place on here that noone ever wants to think they belong to but we will be there for you whether it is now or 6 months or even years down this crappy road you are on .

I am trying to remember any words that helped me at the time but tbh there are none , just know you are not alone and whatever you are feeling now and in the dark days ahead are completely normal .

Be kind to yourself and again I am so sorry .
