They suspected a small pneumonia, but they weren't sure...readmitted him and started a different antibiotic and did daily ultrasounds to check for an abscess. There was no abscess. They kept him for another 3 nights. I really thought we might lose him on several different occasions. They did keep him on IV's and and a NG tube for nourishment, and he finally turned the corner. The nutritionist at Gulf Coast put him on a new prescription food (he was on a hypoallergenic food previously) - and I have taken him back on three occasions for bloodwork since. All normal now and he loves his new, lower fat diet - Royal Canin Modified Calorie Hypoallergenic Whitefish & Potatoe. Sending prayers your way for Sweet Mylee - I know how difficult it is to have one this sick. |
Wow this does sound similar. So glad your baby is doing better. This is my first experience ever with this dreadful illness. Thank you for sharing your story. Helps to hear others have gone through this.
