SINUS INFECTION

July 21st – Avery’s trend of having a running nose continues. We took Avery to the ENT because all three of us are beyond frustration. The ENT told us Avery has a sinus infection (yeah, her ears looked great) and put her back on antibiotics for a month (I truly think Avery has only lived 4 months without antibiotics – which means she has been on antibiotics for 9 months). ENT really thinks this will kill the infection and we can return to life without a runny nose, which is not the norm. If the antibiotics don’t kill the infection, then she will have to have a cat scan and a swab done of the infection, and since she can’t even sit still for a moment, that means being put to sleep again. She is still on allergy medicine morning and night until we rule out allergies but since her drainage is colored and not clear I don’t think it is allergies. At this point David and I (and I’m sure Avery is too) are willing to try anything to get rid of the constant infections. Please pray and keep your fingers crossed that the antibiotics work and once off the antibiotic that the infection does not return.
