I’m so frustrated…Alexis had her tonsils, adenoids, and ear tubes placement surgery in March 2006 and since then she has had 2 rounds of strep throat. This past time the first abx Omnicef for 10 days didn’t get rid of it and now she is on Suprax day 7 of 10 and I think she still has it, since she is still waking up at night crying, taking large gulps swallows of her salvia, I have to give her Advil every night so she can sleep. We are suppose to go back after 2 weeks to get tested again, if she still has strep she’s going to be on abx for 3 months as preventive. They think I’m the carrier so I went to see her ENT last week and he too believes my tonsils are too big and most likely the carrier, so I need to schedule for a tonsil removal myself! Hopefully that will solve the problem, but having tonsils removed at my age I heard is very hard and on top of that taking care of a busy 2 year old and a 2 month old with eatting problems that we haven’t gotten to the bottom of the problem yet, still crying with each feeding and now having problems with her lower GI is going to be very hard. But it has to be done so Alexis doesn’t get strep anymore. Now we have to disinfect everything in the house!! Thanks for listening to me vent! Alexis’s mom2006-6-11 0:28:43
