Thank you! He has never been offered treatment with IVIG. I thought after seeing the Immunology that would be an option. He does get sick all the time with upper respiratory stuff. He does have asthma and sleep apnea. Tonsils and adenoids out around age 3. Gallbladder out and colonoscopy, endoscopy and a camera endoscope. Gastrointestinal Dr., has been great and always checking in with us. He seems to be lactose intolerant , but no test done indicated it. Trial and error diets. He keeps having elevated fecal Calprotectin. I hope we can see someone at mayo and if not I will look into a Medical University. We live in the middle of nowhere Kansas and just going to Children’s in Colorado is a 4 hour one way trip.
