Thyroiditis?

[JenniferG]

Hi

 

My DD11 was confirmed rapid strep positive on Aug 500 from omnicef. Hasn't had confirmed in years. VERY painful. You could see her lymph nodes. Changed her to Azith 500. She couldn't tolerate it, vomitted. So down to 250mg. Sore throat went away, but L sided neck pain, sores inside L side of mouth only. Severe fatigue. Shaky, sweating/hot red cheek flashes, weak shaky legs, lost 3 lbs in a week and very hungry, nausea after she eats. Labs showed neg EBV, but Free T3 5.37 (2.0-4.40) pediatrician poo pooled it and told me to wait to talk to PANDAS MD. ALT 64 (10-50) ESR 4--nml and elevated Lymphs.

 

Her last Azith was Friday. She actually seemed to be coming out of it. But yesterday yesterday she tanked again. I put her back on Azith until we speak to MD on Tues. She seems much better this pm. Her L side is still sore.

 

Have you experienced Subacute Bacterial or Viral Thyroiditis? Does this sound like it?
