Guest guest Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 I am so glad to have found this group, I have often felt alone in this endless battle of . My son Landon was diagnosed a little over a year ago with . He started with the fevers at age 1. They would come like clockwork every other Friday and would last until Monday. We also like many others were told it was viral and normal for a child to be sick this often. I knew in my heart that this was not " normal " especially since we have an older son who was never sick. Eventually I found a pediatrician who listened and investigated further. We were sent to a hematology group which led us to the diagnosis. Landon is now 4 and 1/2 and is still getting fevers constantly. We started the steriod treatment which does take away the symptoms but has increased the episodes. We now are getting fevers once a week instead of every 2 weeks. Has anyone tried to have the tonsils removed? Does anyone have information on steriod treatment, and know of any negative side effects? Any info will be welcomed. Thank you so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
