Hi
My twin boys (6) had their tonsils and adenoids out on Tues. The Microbiology result came back as:
Alpha Hemolytic Gram Positive Cocci
Non pathogenic Neisseria species
Now, Friday my dd10 who is on daily Augmentin had a positive rapid strep. She was changed to Azith. She did say she had a little sore throat on Th and Fr...which is now gone. Her symptoms (anxiety, OCD, mood swings have increased over the weekend and now she is starting with a fever). She was on Azith every other day and tics started a couple of months ago. And keep increasing. Two weeks ago was put on Augmentin 400mg 2xday..(64lbs). And the tics continue. Both boys also started with a fever yesterday. They are not on any antibiotics since surgery.
Is the above result the same as the rapid strep bacteria?? And I did another home rapid strep this AM and it was instantly positive...Fridays took a little longer.
ANY input would be appreciated. I am going to call Pedi.....is Biaxin the next choice? And should the boys be on their Augmentin or something different??
THANKS!!!!
