I think my son may need to go back onto augmentin ...

... he was on it for 2 months and got 20% better.  He is now slowly starting to change back - afraid of insects again, that sort of thing.  It was so promising a couple of weeks ago when he proudly told me he had watched a spider wrap up a fly for its dinner in web.  One of his symptoms had been that he was terrified of flies - it seems that may be returning.  A psychiatrist has just given approval for augmentin but I want to see how my son settles with the medication for his eosinophilic gut disease first.  We also need an elimination diet. This is very serious.

The good thing is that there are things that can massively improve his health that have been found by blood tests and other examinations.  It is slow going but we are getting there with a couple of good doctors helping.
