Guest guest Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 , You are correct. I spoke to the GI doctor today and he said that Biaxin and the Flagyl that Max is taking can both make him nauseous. But he needs the meds to get rid of what has turned out to be a massive infection. If he stops the meds, then Max will still have the infection and it could become resistant to antibiotics altogether. Today, at the GI's advice, I am taking Max to the Mind and Body Institute that he helped start. There is a nurse there who specializes in kids with chronic medical difficulties and can help teach Max how to cope with this. Max already sees a psychologist, but this person is supposed to be someone who will address the medical part of it as well as the psychological - sort of a biofeedback sort of thing. It's worth a try. They are supposed to have a whole support group going on there, too. At this point, we will do anything. If Max continues to throw up, he will be back in the hospital - and we do not want that! Jodi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
