Guest guest Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 At the hospital I to took of my son they did of a nasal swab and was able to confirm of the whooping cough for him at that method he was of three months of age. I to took him to one hopsitla to yelled at me and to say they are of the doctors and he to not have of whooping cough. I to read of it in my medical book for childrens I to had back then and was of sure and he would be to cough till he to pass out ands hims lips turned of blue. I to taked him to another hospital that is in an amish community and they to knew what it was right away to be whooping cough , they did the swab and confirmed of it. He was sent to a childrens hosptial 2 hours away from my home and was there for 10 days? Sondra In Autism_in_Girls , " Debi H.

Let's all thank God California's 2 year autism decline must mean that they are back to incompetent reporting. Forget that autism increases every time a new vaccine is added to infant vaccines and now that thimerosal is decreased autism is decreasing. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Oh Sondra, I'm so ready to fuss about doctors! Dinah is 3 yrs, 3 mos, so she wouldn't have nearly as severe a time as your baby. I think I'd prefer an Amish doc, I bet they use more natural medicine and common sense! I think I'm gonna request they check titer level in her blood, I've read the nasal swab isn't always positive. Thanks, Debi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
