Just got off the phone with Austin's pediatrician and she is sending in a prescription for antibiotics..this would be his 10th course since September..We are setting up appointments with an allergist and of course back to the ENT..I asked about doing some blood work, to maybe rule out things, maybe narrow down where the infection is at..She said that the allergist will do a full panel and check the immune system so there is no point in her sending me for one too..She didn't want to put him through it twice..Hopefully one of them will be able to pinpoint the problem..We are sitting in a holding pattern here..The antibiotics will not kill the infection, there is no way, but maybe it will lessen it some or kill some of it..maybe enough so he feels better until we can find it and ???? If he gets worse tonight I am supposed to bring him to the clinic tomorrow so she can see him....I am almost to the point of showing up at Texas Children's Hospital and telling them..put him in a room, run some damn tests, take some x-rays and find out what in the hell is wrong with him!! Then FIX IT...Poor baby..
Of course this doesn't just affect Austin, Keira is also suffering..She is not getting the attention that needs from me..He takes so much energy that she gets kinda pushed aside, which is why I was so happy to put her in school..it was something that was for her...My mom will be taking her for a day next week to do "grandma" things..I looked into swim lessons at the Y and they are outrageous, so I am gonna check into some else..I am sure it's too late to really get her signed up for anything, but who knows...
