Thank you for the reply, she has had some allergy testing done and the daycare she is at is not very large and other kids there are rarely sick in comparison to her and if they are they are out for maybe a day with 101 102 fevers not 5 days with 104+ fevers, our provider has been doing this for 20+ years and has expressed concern on how she has never seen a kid this sick with such high fevers so often on top of that every time she is ill no other kid at daycare is sick nor do my wife or I ever get sick with whatever infection she has. One of the immunologist we have met with referred us onto Cincinnati Children's to try and get a definitive answer as to whats going on. I didn't know if you have came across any remotely similar cases as ours? Thanks

Thank you for your reply and the great information we will look into this more and inquire about it in our next appointment. She does have a peanut allergy; all other food allergy test were negative. Thanks again

@bac10, Your story breaks my heart. I hope you get answers soon. Have they done a sputem test to see if there could be some kind of odd lung infection? If that test is done, that can pinpoint precisely what germ the culprit is; provided it is being caused by a lung infection. I mention this because mine went undetected for years because no doctor thought to do a sputem lab test. I am suspecting lung issues since everything else checks out with your daughter & you mentioned croup. Food allergies can also wreak havok with your immune system and cause lung issues. Have you tried any kind of elimimation diet? I hope you find answers soon. Please keep us posted. Hugs and prayers for your family. Terri
