Becky, its good to hear the ENT understands your concerns and has validated

Maddies antibiotic usage. One less fight for you to fight!

I hope the Zyrtec and nasal spray helps, too.

A small personal coupe that other PID families can more than relate to. I hope

things improve quickly and that the ear

stays well. Macey's been on Zyrtec for almost 3 yrs now and it works very well.
