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

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 dreadfully, dreadfully sorry to read this. You and MrEdgar sound so brave and the love you have for your little boy shines through your words.

I have just given my DDs an extra kiss goodnight.

It is too sad for words and your loss should never, ever have to be endured by any parent.

Sending you and your family lots and lots of love. xxx

I can't begin to comprehend what you're going through, Edgar and Mr Edgar but just wanted to say how very very sorry I am for your terrible loss. He sounds like such a beautiful, loving, brave boy.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers. x x

Oh Edgar I'm so sorry to read about your little boy. Your posts reflect the unquestionable depth of your devotion and unconditional love for your precious DS; what a blessing he will always be to you. I can't imagine your pain but I pray you will know the comfort and love of your friends and family and will draw strength from their love and compassion.
