Abby

[moni]

My daughter Abby is 1 1/2 and she had a sinus infection. She wasput on amoxicillan for 10 days and it didn't touch it. She was now started on bactrim for 14 days. It turns out she has MRSA in her nose. She did culture for colonized MRSA in her throat about 6 months ago. She also had her routine bloodwrok about a month ago from the CF doctor and they just decided to tell me that she is Iron D insufficient and they are going to start her on enzymes. Can anyone tell me what they are like. She will also be enrolled into early intervention. The doctor feels that this way if she needs the hospital, she won;t fall behind. ANy ideas?
Thanks, Monica

Hi Monica- Has your daughter been diagnosed with CF? My son is 4 mos and has been on enzymes since he was 3 weeks old. He seems to do fine with them. I simply open a capsule on drop the inner-beads of the capsule into applesauce. But with your daughter being 1 1/2 I am not sure how they are given. They are tasteless.
