KidsHappen Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 (edited) He has small airway obstructions that are getting progressively worse and they aren't sure why. I just saw this update. I have no idea how I missed it before. Have they checked for histoplasmosis? The reason I ask is because both my brother and I had this as children. I didn't even get sick and only found out later due to scarring showing up on an X-ray when I had pneumonia. My brother on the other hand ended up with a collapsed lung. The histoplasmosis (I don't know if this is a bacteria or virus or what) had caused a growth around the major airway to one of his lungs. He had to have surgery to have it removed and was in the hospital for six months. He is perfectly healthy now but it was very scarry for awhile and it would have been so much easier if they had caught it earlier. I am assuming that if your son has had x-ray and surgery that they would have caught it if this was the case but what happened to my brother was unusual so they might not think of it right away. My brother was lucky in that he was in the Dallas Children Hospital where they deal with more unusual cases. In any case, I am so glad to hear that he has made it through surgery and that they have managed to reinflate his lung. Hopefully he will heal quickly and they will find and fix the problem. Praying for you both here. :grouphug: Edited September 16, 2010 by KidsHappen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
