I can't take him with double ear infections. i have to wait till they clear up, and he needs to go back to the peditician, and they will write me a perscription, can't do anything without the perscription.. so i'm a little screwed right now... Plus i don't think they can test him with ear infections anyways...

When my granddaughter had multiple ear infections, they sent her to an ear nose and throat doctor to treat the infections. I think that is what needs to happen in this case and that is what Marilyn is saying. The pediatrician has tried and tried and tried and the infections keep coming back. You need another opinion on how to treat them. I'd get him to the ent as soon as possible.

oh i am, as soon as this ear infection clears up, i have to go back for a follow-up to his peditrician, and he said he is going to send us to Childrens Hospital to the specialist for more testing. I can't do anything right now without the perscription from his Peditirician.. my insurance will not pay for it... we are going but have to wait.... They can't see whats going on in his ears with this infection, they can't see the fluid... i have to wait until his antibiotics are done with and take him back and then they will send us to the specialist...

{{{{{Hugs}}}}}} It sounds like you're dealing with a lot right now and need a BIG hug. Please don't buy another pack of cigs. Remember the reasons that you're wanting to quit. Nothing has changed and your reasons are still there. I'll be praying that Micah's ears will get better and that your stress will lessen. Remember we're all here for you!!!!

Believe me i wouldn't buy a pack, i'll be going for a carton!!! today is my first day without the patch, and its yukkie i'm going to try and workout at the gym after work today... see how that goes..
as for Micah. the antiobiotics seem to be working better than the last ones, he was so sick on those, i think they were too strong.. last night was the first time he slept thru the night in a while, but then again he had motrin, antibiotics and clairton, no wonder he slept thru the night... and so did i the first time in a long time also, first night without the patch i ripped it off yesterday after work, couldn't take it anymore, sick of the strange dreams... boy did i need that sleep, went to bed at 8o...
micah also had his speech classes yesterday, they went well,, boy the stupid things you don't think of, to teach your child, she amazed me yesterday.

Hopefully soon Donna, i know he's going to need tubes, but i tried to keep him away from that.. but even his ped. said its likely now cause of all the infections he has had...plus the fluid stuck in his ears.. i will know in a couple of weeks when he goes back...
It was crazy when i took him there i didn't even know he had ear infections, he showed no sign, no fever or anything, well he's always sticking his fingers in his ears cause of the fluid, but that was it...
but it will get better i keep praying... and he will be going down to Childrens' that's the best hospital around my area.. they were so nice when we went down for his hearing test (but like i said waste of time with the fluid in his ears)... but i'm glad now i know where its at.. it was hard to find the first time down..
