Re: My Story

[Guest guest]

I wish you luck with the surgery. My daughter is 6 and we went through it 12

days ago. It was rough! But I will say, just when you think they are never

going to eat again...they do! So don't panic.

Hello, I just joined this group and wanted to let everyone know my

story. So my son is 5 yrs old now he started having really high

fevers when he was 2, I though that most of those fevers with no

symptoms were from teething, wrong! It wasn't until last summer that

he finally was diagnosed with and they had to do all the blood

tests and make sure he didn't have anything else. It seemed like

forever for them to believe that he had this. I was giving him the

prednisone pills for like 6 months and still not going away on its

own, which they said might happen. With a lot of hesitation from the

doctors I finally got a referrel to the ear/nose/throat doctors to

see if he could get his tonsils out, I heard there is a 50% chance

his fevers can go away with getting them out, so hey why not? I know

when he goes to school they won't let him be there with a fever. I

finally got the dr. to schedule his tonsillectomy and he's also

getting his adnoids taken out too, Friday, May 25th. So I'm raring to

go buy also a little nervous about the surgery, because its my first

child and have never had surgery myself. Our doctor is great and re-

assuring me everything will go smoothly. So that is what is going on

with my family right now.

My son's fevers got up to 104.5. (pretty scary) when they get that

high I start freaking out. It's very weird how they get this fever

and no other symptoms come at all. I look forward to talking to most

of you. Wish us luck next week. ~Seneschel ('s Mom)

I'll try and remember that, my son is already a picky eater too. But we went

shopping this weekend and got a lot of pudding and jello and popcicles and cup

of noodles.

Hopefully he will be able to live on that for a while.

Thanks for the support.

My daughter ee, just turned 3 is also having her tonsils and

adenoids out on May 25th. I will be praying it will work for both our

children. Her last episode was last week and her fevers soared to

106.7. It was very scary and painful for her. Our last hope is that

the surgery will heal her or at least make the episodes less frequent

or less severe. Good luck to your son, we will keep your family in

our thoughts as we go through the same thing. May our children have a

smooth, quick and painless surgery and recovery.

Wow, that is funny that they are having their surgery the same day.

Good luck to you too, I'm hoping for good results too.

We'll have to K.I.T. to see how they are both doing.

Talk to you soon.

I got all that too and couldn't get it down her...she finally ate some Cambell's

chicken noodle soup with the goldfish in it. They also had Dora one's. She

thought the different shaped noodles were neat..maybe that will help with your

son too. I think they have Spider Man.

Make sure you give pain medicine on time. If you let it wear off it is very

painful for them. My son had his out in Oct. 06 and is doing great. He has had

no fevers since. He still complains every once in awhile of joint pain so we

are seeing Dr. Punaro (Rheumatologist spelling) at Children's in Dallas

tomorrow. I will let everyone know what she says about our visit.

Seneschel,

I am so glad to hear is recovering well. ee is having a

hard time still. She had a difficult recovery right after the surgery

and is improving daily but is still having a lot of pain. She is

having stomach and gas pains along with the throat pain and she is up

every few hours at night. We are hoping it will all be worth it in

the end. Please keep in touch.

Seneschel,

I'm glad to hear that is recovering well, and I hope that this will

cure his fevers. I just wanted to point out that if he still has fevers, he

may be able to attend school even when fevering if he feels up to it. My

son's preschool was very understanding about the fevers, and we just needed

to bring a doctor's note explaining that he is not contagious when he has a

fever episode. Of course, we keep him home if he doesn't want to go, but he

just attended a field trip and his " graduation " while fevering, and we were

so glad he could do both those things. But I hope that 's fevers are a

thing of the past and that you never need to address this issue. has

his ENT consult next week, so we may be heading down the tonsillectomy path

too. He had two really bad fever episodes recently with a lot of tonsil

involvement making breathing and swallowing difficult. But of course, since

we had this ENT appointment made, his last episode was much milder and his

tonsils didn't get bad this time.

, thanks for that hope, I hope when he goes to school this year, that he

will not have any more fevers...But if he does we will take it one step at a

time. Even if they come back the tonsil removal was worth it, at first the

doctor didn't think they were bad, but once out he agreed they needed to be

taken out. Made me feel a lot better hearing that..

on her progress, good luck with no more fevers...
