Dr K appt tomorrow


Recommended Posts

Good luck with your appointment! For us he ordered ASO and dnaseB titers, anti-nuclear antibody, EBV and mycoplasma as well as total IGG and IGG subclasses. He gave us a prescription for Augmentin which we were able to start right away. He asked about symptoms and did a brief exam with my son. We had a follow up appointment 2 weeks after. Be warned that his interaction with kids is unusual. He always calls the boys "Mary Lou" and asks them if they like to play with Barbies. I think he does it to judge their reaction and social skills. I hope you get some answers!

Thank you for the replies. I had been thinking of emailing his symptoms so I went ahead with that. Also wanted to look up the labs he may order. We are new to all this so trying to learn all I can. Fingers crossed that we are headed in the right direction...

He started DS on Augmentin for 14 days, ordered lots of lab work, and said to take him to ENT to have tonsils evaluated. We were to go back in two weeks but he was out of town that week, pushing it to 3 weeks.

 

We saw a huge improvement on the Augmentin. I was shocked. Has a new symptom of vocal tics, but all other symptoms improved. He finished it 2 days ago, and completely crashed today. Could not get to school, etc.

 

I am anxious to get his lab results. We go back on Tuesday. I've been trying to learn as much as I can. It's overwhelming...

So what all did you find out from your DS labs? Any change in treatment?
