Through out the year dhyey was very healthy child, but the year end was terrible for him. In my previous writing I put down about dhyey’s cold and cough. Usually I didn't panic over the appearance of fever, cough and all that. What worried me was that there seemed other symptoms like he seemed with bad appetite. His breathing was rapid and noisy. He seemed all the time tired and Continuous quite high fever at 104 [degrees]. And most unusual symptom- hives, red pinkish to red bumps on the body. Foremost I thought it was mosquito bites, but unfortunately it was not that. So we decided to take him to pediatrician and dermatologist rather than treating the fever with over-the-counter remedies – my typical habit. i was in ahmedabad to attend my bro's angagement, so we continued his cure in ahmedabad. doctor proceeded to carry out his usual thorough physical examination, after which he announced that he was unable to find a clear source for hives.And finally he concluded pnemonia by taking an X-ray, and several blood testing. And for hives he recommended to visit the skin specialist. According to skin expert that hives was due to increased WBC counts and also it may cause by pneumonia. Subsequently he recommended to keep on with pneumonia treatment, and given the way out that when pneumonia will recovered, hives will automatically be vanished. All these required him to be hospitalized for six days, and further told to continue antibiotics at home for 1 month. But I had an attack of intuition and somehow felt that this was not the explanation, although i did not want to contradict our doctor whom my father in law had respected many years, as they are our neighbor. and also a decent dr., prafull patel. so i did nothing until Dhyey got fever down. All through this instant Dhyey finished first year, we could not celebrate his first birthday. his 13th month was finished by same routine as 12th , but hives was not vanished. So we taken him to the Dr. Raju.C.Shah- Ankur Institute Of Child Health, very intelligent and city-famous pediatrician.But again medicine did not work on him, and shuffled skin expert Dr. Ramesh Poria. Now Dhyey has entered into 14th month, hives expansion has decresed now, we have to observe it for 15 days more as per dr’s estimation. Lets see what happens after that. If it would not be vanished in these 15 days afterward we are scheduling next appointment in breach candy or hinduja hospital, in our city. we wish the whole thing would be all right.
