Now my two year old has been referred to a pediatric ENT (I didn't know there were only 35 in the country! WOW I feel blessed!) for tubes. My chiropractor is against it but the ENT said about the same thing yours said. I am going to wait to see how we do this summer when we are on vacation (I am a teacher and they are in daycare during the school year). If we have more infections, tubes in August.Andromeda Jazmonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12355192738014962965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8180723005799822147.post-30359614285855745512007-06-05T12:38:00.000-05:002007-06-05T12:38:00.000-05:00Snowbaby had them done.

More like if you were having a tooth pulled. She was back in 15 minutes, eating within the hour and playing by the end of the day. And she feels much much better now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8180723005799822147.post-13117957402682079072007-06-01T12:12:00.000-05:002007-06-01T12:12:00.000-05:00Smiley had frequent ear infections before he went ...Smiley had frequent ear infections before he went to daycare! Tubes were simple and helped tremendously. He had so much fluid poor thing could barely hear! It only took about 5 min and they just give them a little gas(no intubation). ENT said it takes longer to put them to sleep than to do the procedure! <BR/><BR/>Of course, we spent 3 hours going round and round with the hospital and social services about who was gonna sign the consent forms, but that's another story!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18233167070552116572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8180723005799822147.post-19920878202309486492007-06-01T10:20:00.000-05:002007-06-01T10:20:00.000-05:00My Sugarbean had tubes put in and the surgery was ...My Sugarbean had tubes put in and the surgery was NO problem- she didn't miss a beat- she had adnoids out at the same time- and seriously- you would have never known she had surgery the next day. Now- she went to live with gm a week later so I am not positive how they helped but the surgery was no sweat. <BR/><BR/>read my blog- i have GREAT news!!!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08367614478917963052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8180723005799822147.post-71888746683103198282007-06-01T07:43:00.000-05:002007-06-01T07:43:00.000-05:00For me, having my Cherubin tubes inserted was the...For me, having my Cherubin tubes inserted was the best thing. I knew it was not going to eliminate the ear infections at all, but it was better than doing nothing. My child had eternal ear infections since he was three months old, he would be put in a lot of antibiotic and have shots, and still not get rid of them. The worse thing was that he would get real high fever to the point of having seizures. With the antibiotics he would fine only a week at the month and get it again. He got his tubes back on Feb., since then, he has had only one flare, his speech has improved and has more energy.Mickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13156626763934642723noreply@blogger.com
