Guest guest Posted February 19, 2002 Report Share Posted February 19, 2002 Mindy, Don't feel alone with your son and his sinus infection. My oldest son has had a sinus infection for about 2 weeks but has refused to let me take him to the ENT. He has cronic sinus allergies and is as hard headed as they come. I finally told him he has to go, made the appointment. If he doesn't go then he is grounded. He refuses to stay home from school even with a terrible sinus headache. Wish I could say it was his age (almost 15) he really hates to miss school. My 11yr old is home today with what looks like another throat infection. He is coughing so much that the drainage and cough are making him throw up. Dr is calling something in for him cause he is booked up this week. We have a great ENT. Sinus infections are certainly going around here in Mobile. The weather is creating lots of illness. It will be really cold and windy in the morning then warm up to about 70 during the day and once the sun goes down it gets really cold. I can't keep up with the weather and deciding to turn the heat on or the ac. is also getting sick. He is coughing real bad but his is a body racking cough. I am trying to get an appt with his primary so I can get all his yearly referrals so he can go see the Plum. dr. They are booked for the rest of the month and they won't get Marches schedule until Tues next week. I don't think he can wait that long. He also has 2 scabs on his head that the dr is treating but they aren't getting any better. I hate that I can't get him seen by a specialist without a referral. The other kids don 't need a referral with our BC/BS insurance. Anyway sure hope your son feels better soon. I hate when kids are sick. hope you are feeling well too.
