Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hello. I'm April, mom of 3 and my oldest, , who just turned 4 has been diagnosed with and been given his first dose of Prednisone. I was amazed at how quickly the fever was gone. We've been in and out of clinics with doctors looking at me like I'm nuts and telling me oh he's fine for over 2 yrs. now. I was so happy to have a doctor tell me that there is a reason. So I'm new to this and doing the research and trying to control my nerves with the things I read. We are waiting on blood work looking at his white blood cell count. Gabe gets high fevers usually around 104 or so and they come on suddenly, last for 3 or 4 days and then are gone. They never respond to tylenol or motrin. The only other thing he complains about it neck pain. He has very large lymph nodes in hsi neck and they feel swollen when he has the fevers. He doesn't eat, drink, play or pay much attention to anythign during the fevers. So I look at the upside that we knwo what it is and try to digest the info. as I read it. If you have suggestions or anything please let me know. April Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
