Guest guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Posted May 18, 2008 Can anyone shed some light on this for me ? I can not find a doctor who will take this seriously and help us figure out what is wrong. My son has constant fevers - Friday night it went to 105.3 and we went to the ER - they ran every test imaginable and came up with nothing. Sent us home with Tylenol This is not the first time we've been to the ER with a high fever He also is sick every single month - literally for the past 12 months he has been sick and they have given him an antibiotic each time. Croup, strep throat and sinus infections - he's been on 21 antibiotics total now and he's is only 3 years old !! Every single month I take him to the pediatrician 3 -4 times for fever and cold symptoms and he either has strep, croup or sinus infection. This weekend in the ER is was horrible, the IV was brutal and so traumatic - he cried for 7 hours. I can't take this anymore - the doctors don't have answers and we've seen 4 immunologists and the refuse to do the food intolerance test because the regular food allergy test and skin test come back normal but I asked for the intolerance test which shows delayed results and they said it's a waste of my time - won't show anything - how do they know that ? He has a fever over 100 every single day - every single month - and they keep telling me to just give Tylenol. UGH Can anyone help ??? Thanks Quote
