CAH child & their immunity
12/3/00 8:25 AM

I'm not sure whether anyone else out there has a CAH child who gets anything & everything that is going around or is it just kids in general.  In the past 5 months Jesse has had 5 colds, bronchitis, hand foot & mouth disease and 2 cases of tonsilitis with the last being on the weekend.  With his sickness too he goes from a temp of 35-36 degrees celcius(not sure in farenheight) to 40 degrees C in one hit which is very scary. I've had to give him an injection once and triple & double his dose on many occasions.  I've lost count on how many courses of antibiotics he's had already and he's only 17 months old!!  What I'm mainly asking is does the medication our children are on seem to lower their immune system or is Jesse just an unlucky one?
