croatianmum Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share 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.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedee Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
