Hi all, we are battling it at the moment, myself and the kids feel gastly and we are so tired. Our GP and consultant have said the children are not to have tamiflu in view of the fact they all have medication allergies, as for myself I wont be taking it as it only gives you one days grace from your body fighting the infection. As the three children are immunesupressed we have been given the peadatric guidelines for hospital admission, where the children will be given IV antibiotics which they can tolerate, if there body can not fight it. One thing which is standing out the most to us is how thirsty we are even with the boys on there feeds they are drinking vast amounts of water, Alexandra today alone has drank 6 litres of rice milk. I have had 5 litres of soda and juice plus cups of herbal tea. I really do feel that the hospital which treats most of the children with eosinophilic disorders should have gave us more information on how it will effect the kids. This has stopped us food trailing and it means now josh has to wait another four weeks before starting again. He has been on feed only for 8 months now.
I am so glad that the boys do have their Gpegs so I can keep their fluids up. The other thing we are all experiance is restlessness I was up until after midnight with Alexandra last night.
