things to make here breathe easier is nebulizer treatments, antibiotics, and cpt.. if your doctor didn't tell you how to do cpt heres what you need to do.. whatever side the pnemonia is on you need to focus on. make yher lay down. cup yur hand and litterally beat on her back.. hit your leg first.. if it sounds like a horse trotting, dnd doens t hurt then ur doing it right.. now beat on the lung that has the pnemonia.. this wil help break the pnemonia up and help her be able to cough it up and out... \n\npnemonia does cause scarring in the lungs, and it is much easier to get pnemonia if you have had it before, i get a yearly pnemonia (have for 10 years)

My Doc told us if we hadn't started PT when we did, (7 months) our son would not be walking, talking, and getting ready to start all-inclusive Kindergarten in September.  Like I said, he started at 7 mos, and is now 5 years old.  We have gone to PT 1-2 times per week for over 4 years now, and I truly believe he would not be as mobile if we had just let him lay in a bed and allow his muscles to get tighter.  If you do not have PT, your son may have tendon shortening, which causes even more tip-toes and in the future he may need surgery for it.  \n\nFrom what you describe, our experiences are very similar.  At 5 months, my son was nowhere near sitting up, he was drooling a lot, and he spit up every time he was fed.  He was also very irritable, but we found out it was a milk allergy causing all the crying.\n\nI am confused with the "normal MRI".  CP is caused from lack of oxygen to the brain, which in turn causes the damage, which shows up in the MRI.  Was he sedated for the MRI?  My son had his MRI at 13 months, but the Ped. Neuro. said the damage would show no matter what age the MRI was done.  He said it will never get better or worse, with respect to the test results, not your child's motor skills.  \n\nYou can never go wrong with PT, it cannot do any damage, and it will only help your son.  It will be worth it in the long run.  Sometimes I see older kids with CP that are mobile, but have a fisted hand, or a severe limp, and I wonder if they had Physical Therapy.  Please do this for your child.  I hope you have a Pediatric PT in your area, we drive 4 hours round trip for ours.  We have a Pediatric Feldenkrais PT and she has done wonders for our son, in my opinion it's better than traditional PT for our child.  Go to www.feldenkrais.com to find a practitioner in your area and learn more about this type of PT.  Good luck!

Pretty much anything that you are concern about your child doing or not doing.  If it is not a medical question, they should be able to point you in the correct direction to get an expert answer.  \n\nIf your child has had issues in the past or has a chronic ondition, you should definitely ask about any updates and be sure to share anything that you have noticed regarding the condition.

I think{as a nurse} the doctors answer was correct. I can also understand your worry of course. Had your partner no signs and symptoms before getting ill at 23? That is unusual. It is likely that the children won't get screened unless one of them develops difficulty breathing, or becomes cyanotic{fingers ,lips,nose go purple/blue colour}. Then they will agree to immediate screening for all the kids but I think it will be hard to get done otherwise. Can you ask even your Gp to refer them to a cardiologist privately to rule out any signs of disease. I think that is your only option-going private. Remember however, if they get screened and all is well, that is no guarantee that it will stay that way throughout their lives. They may need screening every few years to make sure. Best of luck. I hope something works out and someone can reassure you.If they are healthy and can be very active without any difficulty, they are bound to be in good shape.Good luck and hope your partner is doing better now.

It's pretty obvious you won't get reliable answers on this forum. WHY would you ask people who have NO clue about your childs disease? Ask the doctor who is treating her, and don't delay treatment by following stupid answers like drinking green tea.

The article on NHS Direct is good and informative about anaemia. The one on dotpharmacy gives lots of info too.

I think you should seek a second opinion.  Sometimes pediatricians are quick to dismiss b/c they see so many of the same things all the time.  It could be something more serious (though I have no idea).  A friend of mine is in the process of getting over an extremely rare disease, and he wasn't properly diagnosed until he was taken to one of the best hospitals in the country.  Sometimes it takes some insistence and a clean pair of eyes to get to the root of the problem.  Best of luck with your kids!

I have a Diagnosis of Aspergers Syndrome and I went to a special school called Hillingdon Manor. It's an Inderpendent special school which was set up by a group of parents looking for a school for their children. It's been going for quite a few years now and they're always looking for staff. I'd suggest contacting them, I don't have their number so either search for it online or if you can't find it e-mail me at: Morpheusy2k4@hotmail.com Good Luck ;-)

Cough syrups have been shown to do nothing to cure, prevent or even treat symptoms of a cold or cough.  Your child might have an infection that if not treated could spread into his/her ears or other part of their body and cause a lot of damage, and cost a lot of money to treat.  Infection can also cause menengitis and sepsis which are lethal diseases.  Please, take your child to the doctor. Coughs shouldn't last more then one month, even if you smoke, which I hope your 4 year old does not do.  (If you smoke go outside till the little one gets better) If you do not have insurance Look in the phone book for Free clinics.  Usually children that young can get insurance that is covered by the State.  Whatever the problem is, it is long past time to take this child to the doctor, sign up for some vaccinations while you are there.  Here's a Web site from the national institute of health in case you want to research a little.
