Guest guest Posted July 12, 2001 Report Share Posted July 12, 2001 Have they run any kind of oral cultures to see if the ulcer areas are maybe thrush? Cody gets oral thrush every time he goes on IV antibiotics, and sometimes even with oral antibiotics. When he does, they put him on Mycelex tablets that he dissolves in his mouth (how old is Connor? I have no clue! LOL). Also, have they tested his poops? Sometimes when so many antibiotics are going in to kill the " bad " bacteria, some of the " good " bacteria get killed off too, and can cause other problems as a result--I can't remember the exact name of the things they tested for on Cody's (I think one was something along the lines of girardella--LOL LOL THAT spelling could be way off base--heck, so could the whole word! LOL). , mom to Codybug (pwcf, 5-1/2), a (wocf, 12-1/2) and DJ (wocf, 7) smichelle15@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 13, 2001 Report Share Posted July 13, 2001 I remember that one, now that you mention it--Clostridium difficile (c. diff.). Here is a website that is a good explanation about it: http://my.webmd.com/content/asset/adam_test_stool_c_difficile_toxin I STILL can't remember what they called the other one, though!!!! , mom to Codybug (pwcf, 5-1/2), a (wocf, 12-1/2) and DJ (wocf, 7) smichelle15@...
