croatianmum Posted October 9, 2013 Report Posted October 9, 2013 my 13 yo son is 5 weeks post IVIG. On the day before going to the IVIG treatment his tics just exploaded, but I assumed it was the stress because of the going to the hospital the next day. So he got HD IVIG; and his tics were present all the time.His ASO was meassured when we arrived to the hospital and it was 69. The tics have continued, didn't improved at all. So, I tought maybe there's something going on. few days ago I decided to check his ASO titers and they are 250 again. he had t&A removed this summer) . So, in this after IVIG month they have increased. he is on HD abx (augmentin 2x 1ooo mg for the last 3 month). His tics are bad, vocal and motor. So, what now? is our IVIG ruined by a strep infektion that appear on the same day as we went to the hospital? Could this be possible? because the increase started right before IVIG? Do I need to change abx? What do we do? I'm desperate..
Dedee Posted October 9, 2013 Report Posted October 9, 2013 I would talk to his physician about changing his antibiotic. Have you ever tried Biaxin? Also, I would try ibuprophen to see if that helps with the tics.
