Investigations

So it's been a while since I last blogged. We've had a summer of hospital appointments, blood tests, genetic testing, dentist appointments and even a visit to medical photography. The chest team have signed him off but sweetly said we can feel free to get our GP to ring them for advice at any time, as can we. Herb has been healthy & happy all summer (I am touching wood as I type as I am stupidly superstitious!). So far we know that his teeth are odd and not all out. This may indicate a syndrome of some kind. Photos were taken of his blotchy skin, red cheeks and teeth. He had lots of tests that returned normal but he does have
hypergammaglobulinemia which simply appears to mean that he can't retain vaccines and has a problem with his immune system. Waiting for more results in December. He has started Pre-school & potty training. All going well. He's been coughing the last few nights and his nose is running...ugh!!
