The immune system does not appear the be suppressed in any way with .... Now with the other disorders.... there could be a problem... Has your child had the complete Immune studies done as well as " complement " studies? These diagnostic tests will show a breakdown of the IGE, IGM, IGD, IGA, IGG etc....

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 - thanks for the quick response. We have not done any Immune testing - is there a site you could send me to which would have more information about this? The possible fevers get up to 102-103 - never anything higher than 103 and even that hasn't been for very long. Usually the fevers last 6-7 days, but they start off low (for 2 days) and then go up. As far as the non- fevers (the ones off the schedule and with other symptoms), this is the 3rd day of this low grade fever. The last time we had one, the fever was higher - but different than the others in that it started high (102) and lasted only 3 days. The doctors think these are unrelated to the fevers because they have other symptoms. She's definitely got a cold this time and the fever has started less than a week since the last one ended. Any thoughts? Thanks again for your help!! am > am, > This is NOT common with children with .

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 ann, My son Drew has pretty much the typical symptoms, and I know others say their children are usually healthier than other children other than during and episode but that unfortunately has not been true for us. He will be 3 in November and has had mono, lyme disease, hand foot and mouth twice, roseola, croup, allergies, too many ear infections to count, strep a few times, sinus infections, and many colds, as well as some low grade fevers inbetween. Until recently, he would run low grade for a few days prior to spiking up high. His last few fevers have spiked high quickly. He has had the immune studies done that Fran mentioned below in the past, which all came back ok. He just had another series run Wednesday and we haven't gotten the results yet. He seems to pick up whatever is going around. , mom to Drew, 3 in Nov town, RI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
