We finally saw an immunologist!

[Guest guest]

After 1 1/2 years, finally got to see an immunologist again. Dr.

Harville moved to our Children's hospital from Duke about 8-9 months or so

ago. He pumped up the IVIG from 10g to 15g (Sam weighs 57 lbs), put him on

daily abx for a year every other month - Amox and Septra. Also prescribed

Zyrtec, Singulair, Hydroxyzine and Tussi 12. Holy Cow! He hasn't had to

be on this many different meds since he was 17 months and in the hospital

with the meningel encephalitus.

Is this typical???

Isn't Singulair an asthma medication? ( hasn't shown any signs of

asthma, so I was just wondering if I were remembering wrong. They

prescribed it 1 1/2 years ago when he had coughing spasms that they weren't

sure of the cause. It didn't do any good then and the virus left as fast

as it came.)

I'm just praying that I can keep track of all the meds....

God bless,
