Advise on Dr. Prescription

I took my 10 year old son to the doctor with symptoms including a soar throat and stuffy nose. The nurse did a quick strep test that came back negative. When the doctor came in he said it was probably his sinuses. He looked in his ears and found them to be normal. Then he looked in his throat and said that he was going to prescribe him singulair and zyrtec because he felt that my son has allergies and not a virus. This just sounds fishy to me. We have never been told that my son has allergies and now suddenly we are being told that he...

My 6Yr Old Daughter to Be Tested for a Type of ADHD

My daughter is a wonderful vibrant 6yr old with a very strong will. We recently moved to the Palm Coast area. I have been told by different people in the past that I may want to have her tested for ADHD. I always refused, saying it was just her personality to be loud and very active. Well, after getting her first report card I decided to talk to a few people. I spoke with the teacher who has been teaching Kindergarten for over 25 years and she suggested my daughter was possibly borderline ADHD. She is very smart and very capable of the work...

4 Year Old Son with Allergies/asthma

My 4 year old son was recently diagosed with allergies associated with asthma. He gets a persistant cough this time of year and in the fall. The cough sometimes causes him to vomit. He has had allergies since he was a baby, however, the asthma part of this is new to me. I feel uneasy about it because he seems to be on lots of medication now. We have a nebulizer and he inhales albuterol twice daily. He also has nasonex, zyrtec and singulair. Zyrtec was the most effective, but now doesn't seem to work as well--this is when he was given...

3 Year Old Always Catching Colds

I have two girls one is 3 and the other is 1, they both stay at home with my mother. My 3 year old from a young age seems to catch a colds quick and often, while my other one seems to bounce right back quick. My mother along with my mother-in-law seem to think that she has a low immune system. I have already asked the doctor and she said that its common for kids to catch colds(she is not in preschool yet). The doctor also said that kids catch about 10 colds a year and last at least 2 weeks, I do worry because it seems like as soon as she is...

My 3 Year Old Daughter Suffers from Extreme Eczema.

She's had eczema since 3 months. We've tried everything any doctor instructs. Nothing has helped. I'm currently working with a chemist who is trying to formulate a product that is sensitive enough for her skin, but still able to deliver the right nutrients for healing. I WANT TO TALK TO MOMS who have been in my shoes. She scratches all night. I could list the things I've tried. It would take forever, however, I am willing and eager to know what has worked for you. I'll try anything.
