Guest guest Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Ava went to the ID doctor today for follow up from her last hospitalization. Seems that she had adenovirus so now we are not necessarily leaning towards . I mentioned to him about PT/PTT and he said he has never heard of there being a connection but he did agree to test hers. He also mentioned platelets go up in relation to inflammation as do WBCs which is what someone else said. I mentioned we were having a lateral neck so we could look at her adenoids and said if we find them to be enlarged, she will go ahead with surgery bc she is sick so often. He said it's so controversial as to whether it helps . I argued with him and said maybe so, but there are many good cases of children doing well after removal. I may not really fit on this board but as long as we don't have our real diagnosis yet I hope I can hang around. My child is sick so frequently and I know what better place with people who understand! The best to all of you for all the right answers and prayers for our children Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
