jenbug Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 None of us have yet been formally dxd with Lyme, but I have one positive specific band IgM 23 I think that was pos. Anyhow, all of us have had a few EIs here and there, but my baby had tubes in at 1 year and had constant infectin from about 6 months until then.

Suzan Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Yes, my girls had constant ear, sinus, throat, chest infections. Both girls had ear tubes. I had lots of strep as a child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momcap Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 One of my boys had chronic ear infections from the time I weaned him at 1 year, until he was 2 years old and got tubes. He had 2 more ear infections after having the tubes in. At that point we eliminated casein from his diet and he never had another ear infection after that. His "asthma" also went away the 3rd day on the dairy-free diet. After 2 years we gradually re-introduced dairy and he is fine with it now. He's IgG positive for lyme.

aidansmom Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Aidan (8) had ear infections starting at 6 months - about every 3 weeks. He would go on antibiotics and he would be better - then after going off it would come right back until he got tubes at 10 months. When those tubes fell out the next year we started the cycle again until he got tubes again 20 months. Those tubes stayed in a long time so we only had a couuple of them after that. (Then it was strep several times when he was 3 until he had his tonsils out.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
