Guest guest Posted June 15, 2002 Report Share Posted June 15, 2002 Hi Diane, Lucas my six year old is the exact way with noses. He tolerates IVS, meds, shots everything except nose sprays, or scopes. He has had alot of erosion in his nose because of sinus infections, allergies etc. so I am sure that he deals with a constant discomfort in his nose. I know some nose sprays burn very badly from personal experience. I knowalso with Lucas that breathing is a real big issue when you have a stuffy nose and asthma. It makes since that he would panic if there is something up his nose and he needs to compensate all the time to breathe. Just another NO NOSE KID.

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2002 Report Share Posted June 17, 2002 Diane, it makes sense to me. They also could do a very good sinus rinse while they are in there. I wonder why they do not do more of them under general anesthesia. Anesthesia can be so minimal these days with the great new drugs. Why do they need to cut if they clear it and use hefty antibiotics and a boost of steriods as well as Guafinison. Just from DR> BARBIE Ha HA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 17, 2002 Report Share Posted June 17, 2002 Thanks Barbie! I didn't even think of the fact that it could be hard for him to breathe on top of being uncomfortable. That makes sense, when you think about it. Although Kody does his nose spray without any trouble at all, but a scope is completely different! I have decided though, that I am going to firmly mention tomorrow to the ent that since a recent ct scan was taken showing the sinuses, that should be enough to decide if surgery is needed or not, and if a scope is needed, why can't they wait and do it at the time of the surgery? That way Kody doesn't even have to know about it! Diane, Mom to Kody, Hypogammaglobulinemia, Di Syndrome, epilepsy, asthma, and CAPD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
