Question

3 month old two hospitalizations from UTI and Rotavirus (vaccine caused), fever 99.6 to 101., loss of appettie, lethargic, no cold symptoms or rash. WBC within normal limits. How do you test for immune deficiency? Kidney reflux, not teething, spastic colon, can only have Alimentum formula. Doctor is seeking answers and so am I. Where else can I look? Can esphogas diseases cause low temps?

Answer 1

I wish that I could give you some really good professional advise for yourself and your doctor. The problem is that "Immunodeficiency", may be present from birth (Congenital Immunodefucuebct) or may develope later in life. Immunodeficiency disorders that are present from birth are usualy hereditary. Although rare, more then 70 different hereditary immunodeficiency disorder are known. In some disorder, the numberof WBC, decrease in other the number of WBC, is normal but they malfunction. In still others, the WBC, aren't affected, but other components of the immune system are abnormal or missing.

I sincerely wish I had the time to go into all 70 indepth. My practice just will not allow the time.

Being that you state your baby is, "3months old", my professional opinion is that your doctor should start with "T-lymphocyte abnormalities.

Reason: Low grade Infections in infants under 6 months of age usually indicate "T-lymphocyte abnormalities.

Wish you and your baby the very best of health. An I will pray for your baby and for you to find the strength to deal with this very serious abnormalities.

Hope that your doctor is a really good detective. As alot of investigation in going to have to take place to get at the root cause and with God help, resolve this medical problem. Or at the very least be able to find the right medications to control this abnormalities in your baby.

The rotavirus vaccine cannot cause the illness. Impossible.

Sounds to me she needs a specialist. A pediatric gastro doctor.
