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?

I too have only just found this thread. My heart goes out to you Edgar and family. How wonderful that you have such lovely memories - he sounds a very special boy. A really loving little boy.

I hope you are getting lots of rl support. You were his mummy, his special mummy. Like others I dont know what words to offer except that we are really only caretakers for every child that comes into our lives. We can only do our very best and give them our utmost love. You have done that tenfold. xx

Oh, goodness, I've just seen ds's photo. What an incredibly beautiful, delightful wee boy. Thank you so much for sharing that with us. I cannot imagine how it must feel to be without him, and I just hope that we can all make the pain just that tiny bit more bearable.
