Negative cultures

[JenniferG]

My ds4(x2) were on azithromycin for well over a year. They also have GI issues.....reflux, what, milk and soy intolerances. They aren't growing. Once we removed wheat and changed from azithromycin to Omnicef we saw large improvements in reflux and eating and they started to gain weight. But, now they have been sick for 6 weeks. Strep throat, ear infection, croup then another infection. Now both complaining of a sore throat when they swallow. They both have had a culture every week for 3 weeks (rapid and sent out) all have been negative. Does this mean Omnicef isn't cutting it?

 

One of the has swollen lymph nodes that are so large you can see them on his neck. And it hurts him to turn his neck.
