Guest guest Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Hi, My name is and my 2 1/2 year old is belived to have JRA. We have an appointment with a Ped. Rhumitologist in 2 weeks. Does anyone have any advise on how i can make my son more comfortable until that time. I feel kind of lost not knowing much information or what he's actually going through. He's a little trooper though. Thank God for that. He doens't complain much but we can see he's in pain. We are giving him Childrens motrin but i don't know if it's really helping all that much. again, any suggestions or advice would really be welcome. it's been a long wait to this point and 2 more weeks is so far away. Thank you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Hi , I'm just repeating some of the advice already given. Warm baths do tend to help my little one a lot. She has gotten two a day since it started at 10 months old. I always would let her sit on comfy comfy chairs and pillows. I would set them up on the floor, when she was watching a show, or needed a snack. They are so listless when undiagnosed. I remember how much pain my little one was in. I know it breaks your heart. Hang in there girl! Answers are coming, and if you don't get them, fight like hell. Do as much research as you can. I hope your little guy feels better soon. Best wishes to you and your family.
