Please pray for my Reese Where do I start...after a year of going through so much trying to figure out what Reese's itchy problem is, I finally broke down and paid for allergy testing this past Wed. as my last resort. In the meantime, they gave me a few things to give her to try and quiet her down..all holistic (natural hydrocortisone, zinc, this chinese herb stuff) So I noticed over the weekend this bruise on her throat and that her glands in her neck are so swollen. So I freaked out, called the vet and they had me come in yesterday to check her out. They said that they never like when glands are swollen..and you know when you look on the internet the worst comes right up (lymphoma). So she tested her for lyme and it came back negative. I asked about the bruise on her neck, which she disregarded (I later realized that her neck is where they take the blood from and that the bruise was from that) So she said that it could just be her body responding to the meds and her nodes cleaning themselves out. I keep hoping it's either that or her body reacting to this crappy bruise on her neck...None of the others are enlarged...So she said to stop the natural hydrocortisone, keep up with the chinese stuff and the zinc and keep an eye and come back in 2 weeks..but I am sick over this. I would hope if she thought this was something serious she wouldn't have said that....but I am in tears writing this because I just don't know what I will do if something is seriously wrong...has anyone ever been through swollen glands?? Please help put my mind at ease about this.... |
Laura i am so sorry to hear you are having a tough time with Reece. i've never had experience with swollen glands but i'm sure there are some on here who can put your mind at ease. keep us posted and in the mean time i'll be praying for your little girl :) |
My Reece gives your Reese licks and snuggles..:( hopefully you will find some answers from other YT'ers but I have nothing to offer you for advice. Reece and Soleil are constantly itching lately..no dry skin, no fleas, no food changes, no shampoo changes..but I blame it on the cooler weather..maybe its has dried their skin out more than I can see..I know I get itchy in the cold weather and my skin dries up bad on my back so I am constantly scratching it..hopefully this is nothing too serious..Reese will be in my thoughts.. Dawn |
Oh I am so sorry for your baby. At least you had the guts to do something about the itching. One of my babies has bad allergies and has been itching for the last two years. I just don't know what to do. I wish you luck and will be thinking about you and praying for your baby. |
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers...has anyone else had issues with swollen glands before???? |
Im going to bump this up for you..I know you are worried.. Dawn |
I pray you and Reece will do ok..:ghug: .... A friend of mine is very sick and we have no answers from the doctor. I found some good information looking on line about health matters and gave it to my friends family doctor. :nursing: The doctor was very interested with information and it gave him more ideas about why my friend is so sick.....(just a thought) |
I wish I could give some input but I can't so I'll just help bump you back to the top with some hugs :ghugs: You and Reece will be in my thoughts and prayers. Will be looking for some GOOD NEWS from you! |
I also wanted to let you know if you go to www.yahooanswers.com and submit your question there..you can get alot of help...you can also get negative comments too..just ignore the idiots that might comment..you cant avoid the jerks on the internet but I have had TONS of help from that website..you can ask virtually anything and someone will respond..hope this helps.. Dawn |
Thinking of and saying a prayer for your baby. |
Big hugs and prayers for Reece and her mommy |
I'm so sorry you're going thru this:( I will pray for her |
Prayers on the way:hands: Hopefully it's nothing serious. |
Thank you everyone so much....I am trying to stay positive...and hope that things quiet down...Have a wonderful Thanksgiving everyone!! |
Good luck with your baby! Please keep us posted. Have a Happy Thanksgiving! (hugs) |
