Hayley had her follow up appointment with Dr. Coppula on Wednesday. It was another long appointment and we were worn out when we left. Ears are looking good, tubes are still opened and allowing for lots of draining. This sounds nasty (and looks even nastier) but its exactly what we are needing and wanting! Nose is still infected and very inflamed, Dr Coppulas was hoping that the medicine he had put into her sinus cavities would help/work and that there would be an improvement at this time. There is little to no improvement. Cultures did show signs of bacteria and we are now referred to an Pediatric Infectious Disease Doctor (PIDD), he didn't feel comfortable treating Hayley, as to he has not seen a case this severe in a child so small. We are waiting for her labs and history to be reviewed by the PIDD and hopefully they will take on her case so that we can finally get her back to normal! What is normal???
