I'm thirteen years old and I have been sick for a constant four years. For the first 8 months I had ear infections in both of my ears and almost had to get tubes in my ears. Then... miraculously my ear infections stopped and I thought I was all better! But then a month later I started getting really, really, really bad sore throats and for 2 years I had strep, tonsillitis, and just horrid soar throats. Finally my doctor (who is a ears, nose, and throat specialist) decided to take my tonsils out! Because for two years I had been on so much meds, missed so much school, and had been in so much pain that he decided to take out my tonsils to end my suffering. That was in April, and we honestly thought I would be all better but since then I have had 3 cases of the sinus infection, one really bad case of the flu, like three unidentified infections in my throat, and a constant cough and cold. I have been to the doctor twice this week and missed three weeks in a row of school do to me being ill. I am on four medications but have practically been on medication for the past four years.
So, what do you think I have? Do you have any suggestions, comments, concerns?
