new to this and overwhelmed


Recommended Posts

I would still try the ibeuprofin at least two doses a day, because the hope is that it will help with her appetite and she will begin to eat. It is good that you at least have a prescription for two weeks a month but if you are planning on sending her back to school I would be worried about the other two weeks a month that she would not be "protected". As you know strep is rampant in elementary schools especially this time of year. I have also wondered about the genetic aspect of this illness. I know as pandas moms we are all on such high "alert" as watching and waiting for any new personality changes, etc.... I would just keep an eye on your son and if you feel he needs to be tested by all means you could do a strep culture or blood work, but it could also just be more of those typical hormonal changes going on. My son always gets tics when he is having an episode so that is my first indication of recent exposure. It sounds like you are on the right track. Keep us posted.
