Hi Rachel, I had the same problems with my son when he was a toddler. Repeated infections, Lymph glands swelling in neck and stomach and enlarged tonsils, in the end they removed his tonsils and Adenoids.He also had repeated urine infections to the point where he couldn't pass water and was circumcised. His health did seem to improve a lot for while. But later in his life, he suffered major depression, anxiety attacks and never seemed well. He has always suffered from really bad mood swings and we found ourselves having to be very careful what we said to him. It's almost like he's got two sides, one very caring and loving and the other incredibly volotile and quite disturbing. During puberty he got much worse and had to go for counselling, at one point I truly beleved he was Schizophrenic. He would shut himself in rooms and have a conversation with no one there. I suspected for years that he was Gay and when he finally admitted this, we thought it would be an end to his problems. But again he seems incredibly confused himself about his feelings and I'm beginning to think there is also something Hormonal going on. Three years ago he started having seizures and has had periods of turning yellow all through his life. He is now 18 and only has ever slept for a couple of hours a night since being a baby. Unfortunately the more volotile side of him took over and we had no choice but to ask him to move out. Although I have tried, he has not contacted me since. My eldest daughter who is still in touch with him, says all his Lymph glands are swollen and painful again. When I took him to the GPs previously, a few years ago with this problem, they could find no answer. His seizures then became so severe, as ill as I was feeling, I had to drive to the hospital and spend every day with him. He finally had a heart attack and ended up on ICU. I know he still gets some seizures now. He cannot drink any Alchohol without one occuring. I worry all the time about him still, but he refuses all contact. It's weird because I was recovering from a similar illness to this when he was born. However my daughters born before and after him seem fine. The mystery just goes on and on. P.S. I know someone whose Grandson, of only 3, is suffering similarly and the GPs are shoving Steroids down him all the time. Typical. Best wishes Love Tracy x P.S. He even has lumps on the top of his head and ears, which th GP says are glands? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
