Guest guest Posted February 18, 2001 Report Share Posted February 18, 2001 Yes, *all* the time. Actually, it usually happens with both my DS and NDA child. I don't really know why. le was like this when she was an infant but my son is *still* like this and he is 18 months. He has an ENT appt. on Wednesday and the placement of tubes is very, very likely.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2001 Report Share Posted February 19, 2001 Yes, you just described . Last winter was a breeze, but this winter he has had one infection after another. He had just finished a course of Augmenten two weeks ago, and last Sunday came in in the middle of the night with a fever and gunky eyes...back on Augmenten. It has been frustrating, he has missed a lot of school this year. R.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2001 Report Share Posted February 23, 2001 Hi Lori, Just catching up on my email. Ted is 9 and has his 4th or 5th set of ear tube, isn't that terrible that I have lost count? He has had 2 colds this winter and the 1st one turned into ear infection which I was able to treat with just the drops. He had the flu from monday the 12th until saturday evening the 17th! This time he didn't have any leakage out of his ears. But even with my 2 older boys, well, I would forget to treat the cold and most times it became bacteria that settled in the ears!

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Thanks everyone. I gave him 2 doses of OLE yesterday and he slept through the night last night and the fever is gone, he seems to feel much better this morning.

Also he's running a fever 101 At my house, ear infections were usually caused by yeast overgrowth. I used biotin and GSE to eliminate them. If the ear infection is bacterial, yes you can use OLE. I have used OLE for several bacterial issues here, as well as viruses. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 You've already posted about whether this child is dairy-free. If not, consider trying it.
