Guest guest Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 I tried the nystatin, but it didn't work. It seems to be some kid of heat. I am using Bactroban to get rid of the redness and powder to help dry it up. Don't know if it is going to work or not, but we are giving it a try. Right now it is getting better, but like I said it did get better before and came right back.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Yep! has just qualified for a 4th season of the Synergis vaccine which protects against RSV. It is given every 28 days from Oct through May. caught RSV right before his first b-day, and spent 3.5 weeks on a vent, 4.5 weeks in the PICU, and 5.5 weeks total in the hospital. It caused severe scarring of his lungs, asthma, and RAD (reactive airway disease). is currently on a Flovent inhaler twice daily, and does nebs of Xopenex and Albuterol as needed. He also gets the flu vaccine every year. Hope this helps! Pat (g-ma to , RSS, 3 yrs 9 months old, 24.5#, 34 " , G-tube, GHT) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 I did not know that they could get the Synergis past the first two seasons. Hailey was on the Synergis after she was released from the hospital. Do you think that is what she is getting that is causing all of this or is there a way to tell what causes pnuemonia? She has had it twice October 2002 and May 2005. It always starts out with weezing and a runny nose. Hailey is on Xopenex and Albuterol along with Pulmicort, Sudal, Zantac, Singulair, and takes Steriods like Orapred and Prednasolone (sp) when she gets this way. Most of the time it is enough to pull her through, but not always. Thanks so much, --- pcpets wrote: > Yep! has just qualified for a 4th season of > the Synergis vaccine > which protects against RSV.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Jodie, I am not really sure what triggers all of this. She went to an allergist and he said that she would benefit from allergy shots, but he has never given a child as small as her the shots. He wanted to wait until after we went to Chicago, seen the gen. and now I am waiting on the endo again. I may end up going back to him before I see the endo again because I do not know when the appointment for that one is yet. The allergist also did limited testing on her because of her size. She is allergic to oak and elm trees and pigweed, but do not know what else needs to be tested to see if she has something else also. I have been giving her Orapred to try to keep her from going back in the hospital. She is not getting any worse right now, but she is not getting any better. I will keep you all posted on how she is doing. --- Jodie wrote: > hey melissa!! > you say she gets sick every year at this time, could > it be a > seasonal allergy that triggers this? i know with > myself i have a > big time problem this time of the year with my > allergies!! and > christopher breaks out from time to time with a rash > after he has a > virus and from allergies. good luck!! > > jodie c > > > > > > I took Hailey to the doctor yesterday to find out > why the rash on > > her bottom has not cleared up.
