Guest guest Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 HI, and thanks for the welcome. Savannah has never had any immune issues until just recently. Of course, when we found the asthma, almost two yrs ago, and it was suddenly so bad, we tested her immune globulins due to her brothers IgG def. and like I said, then, the only low was M, by just a hair. Now EVERYTHING is dropping, I dont know if that means she actually has a deficiency of some kind, but something is surely going on. But it scares me. The boys are not currently on IVIG.but their pulmo says.........if Brennan gets ANY lower, he will need it----Brennan is sick year round andhe is only 3---Right now, he caught something at Christmas, and is still sick, even though at the time, he was on his prophylaxis antibiotic, we tried prednisone(baby speed), we tried doubling his prophylaxis, we have him on day 4 of zithromax, and he is still sick. NOt AS sick, but still sick. And it seems like he never gets fully well, just better enough, then really sick again. Its frustrating. And my 5 yr old has constant sinus infections. It interferes with school, b/c he is so often stuffed up and congested, his asthma going crazy, but if I kept him home every time he sniffled, he would never go anywhere. We are looking into the possibility of taking out his tonsils and adenoids, but first we have to go thru neuro consult, b/c he has this crazy sleep problem we know it isnt OSA, but something is wrong there, and the ENT wants to make sure it isnt something neuro before we pull the T and A.
