HELP!!!

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone--

After living with Bri for 13 years, I thought I had seen most forms of

sinus infections. But, at the moment, I'm nervous. He has had a sinus

infection

for seven or eight weeks!! So far, he has failed Omnicef and now

Clindamycin--both times with a steroid burst. He has had a horrible cough

almost the

entire time from the drainage.

I hate to go in this afternoon, because his usual Ped isn't there. It's

sometimes difficult to explain to a new Doc how Bri doesn't follow the rules.

At

least he has the hacking cough she can listen to.

I think it's worthwhile to do a CT now. I also think maybe a throat

culture. If strep is coming from his sinus--Clindamycin will not work. He has

actually come down with strep in his throat while already on Clindamycin three

or

four times.

I can't think of anything else--any ideas???
