3 Yr old daughter has been getting sick ever since we moved to Japan(military). She has been getting recurrent high fevers(105) and rashes or hives that soon follow within weeks. She has also had viral and bacterial infections left and right. I am so tired of not getting any answers as to why this happens every other week. My 10 month infant is showing signs of all this too. The only thing I do know is that she was just diagnosed with alopecia(hair falling out in some places) and eczema which is seasonal and does not relate to the stuff she is getting.
I do not know what else to do as far as these fevers and rashes, because they are causing problems. Also I just found out that she has not gained any weight in over 3 months. I do not know what is going on. Any suggestions? Please help!

Please, get them both a good dr-asap! They may be allergic to something they are eating/drinking over there. There may be parasites or something going on. Insist on getting them thoroughly examined-asap. When I was little, my mom knew there was something physically wrong with me when I was a baby-and she kept going to dr's. until they finally figured out the problem. My father was military as well.
Please insist (request rather storngly) ct scans, blood work, etc. to check them out and see what the problem is. I believe families should stay together when possible in the military, but if no solution is found in Japan, you may need to bring tem stateside, at least until the answer to what is going on is found out. I wish you and your family the best. Take care.

Since this is happening to both kids, you might want to have the place where you're living tested. I can think of a number of things that might be wrong with the environment, but I've no way to prove or disprove.

Meanwhile, get those babies in a hospital. While children can be warm little people 105 is WAY too hot, especially recurrently!

Good luck, lots of it!

A move of such Geographic proportions is stagerring for your Child's entire Mind, Body , emotional system.

Personally...
it speaks to the Great Personal and Professional Sacrifice that our Military Professionals and their Families make for our Country and it's Freedoms.

His body has now been subjected to NEW Environmental Sources and FOODs ..

Add to this .....the Stress of the move and the Stress he prob feels around him i.e. Family ..who is under major Stress with such a move.

May I suggest IgE Environmental Seasonal & Year-round Blood Allergy Testing ...

AND...
Prob most Important ...
IgE & IgG4 FOOD Testing ...
Once possible offending FOOD Sources are identified.. DIET Modification is your Solution.

Because Allergies have a Strong Parent Influence ..
and BOTH Kids are showing Health Issues shortly after the move ..
the common source of FOOD Allergy is quite possible...

Good Health to you and Enjoy your Time in Japan

My dear friend!!!
This is a question of advice ought to have been asked to Doctors, for treatment and suggestions.

However, I shall try to make you think more.
You say she is getting this after u moved to Japan. I take it that she was born else where, not in Japan. One inference is that she is not compatible with the weather and environment there and hence showing negative progress.
Regarding the younger 10 month infant, u did not mention of her birth place too.
Fever of 105 for the children with associated infections surely test the parents patience. There must be indigestion also.
Did you notice any coating on their tongue. You have to ensure good digestion to children, as otherwise many ailments result there from.
One good food supplement is RAISENS., i.e. dry grapes with seeds. They are bigger than KISMIS.

Give 10 raisens soaked in water and juice made to the daughter daily, where by she picks up good resistance. Honey in milk is also good.

Do not give medicine known to you as a habit. If you know any Homoepath practitioner in Japan, nearer to your place, please consult him. For the symptoms you stated , there are good medicines there.

Ensure that plenty of sunlight and fresh air with lot of oxygen are available and that the children are exposed to them.

Please wash the children with water mixed with crystal salt, after regular bath, at least once a day. The salt absorbs the negative energy and gives healing. Give more vegetarian food and fruits.
Give them lots of fresh butter milk.

About medicine, if you are not able to get Homoepath, please show to the regular Physician there and meanwhile try to get medicine from India by post. Now a days with the mobile and VOIP phone you can contact and get medicine.
I wish you all the improvement at the earliest.

Had you consulted a doctor? You must get professional help. It's not normal for an infant not to gain weight in three weeks because it's his growing up years. What is the vitamins of your children? Had you been in the Philippines, I can recommend a good herbal vitamin for your children.

If you or your spouse is in the military, do they not have medics with pediatric information?
Could your baby have scabies, or worms?
There are internet sites whereby you can ask questions.
