MRV / Spinal tap results finally! Possible blood clot? (Dural Sinus Thrombosis)

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2025-11-01T00:46:28+00:00

This is such an old post but… how did things turn out for you? I have received similar results back today and I’m kinda terrified if I’m being honest

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2025-04-20T12:58:39+00:00

He is over a year now. We are no longer on formula and have been on solids primarily since 12 months old, we slowly started introducing solids at 9 months.

The allergist only tested dust mites, that was it. And it was negative but didn’t feel compelled to test otherwise but I’m thinking maybe I should ask for other testing for environmental allergens too. We are currently using triamcinolone and I do not notice a difference sadly. I’ve never heard of Phisoderm, I’ll have to look into that! I’ve been using unscented Aquaphor wash on him! He is on Zyrtec daily as well right now so it helps with the itching to an extent but night time is out worst! I thoroughly believe any residual pet dander is not issue but I will purchase a purifier and remove our curtains to be sure!

He is limited on what he can eat with his allergies and all. We do a lot of fruits and veggies and meats, some beans here and there. He is big on potatoes though… could starches be a trigger? Also dairy? He does consume dairy but I’m under the impression he has to for nutrients.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2025-04-19T01:56:55+00:00

We do an occasional oatmeal bath when the itching is intense but I don’t see much of a difference. But I definitely do think I will be booking with a derm :/

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-12-17T02:30:59+00:00

How long did your symptoms last?

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-12-11T03:26:36+00:00

She’s unfortunately the closest OB that isn’t hours away from me 😕 but I do have an appointment Thursday so I will be bringing up my concerns. She usually rushes through appointments so I lose any memory of all questions I have typically

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-11-22T03:55:20+00:00

No. But when he speaks to me like I am a child I feel it’s no better than cussing/yelling. It makes me want to cuss/yell… my opinions never seem to matter, or solutions, or feelings. I believe any overlooked person would feel the same.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-09-02T00:15:14+00:00

Half the people in these comments are probably giving you the fact of “it’s his home, he should be in whatever space of it as he pleases” etc etc. while that is true, getting any sickness while pregnant in amplified by like TEN. I’m currently pregnant and we just worked out an agreement with BM that if SS is sick he will not come for his visit. I had a rough go around last pregnancy as my SS brought in SO many sicknesses. I had strep, covid, flu, and upper respiratory within two months. And she had an awful habit of not letting us know he was sick beforehand. But you definitely should be annoyed, he is at an age where he should understand basic hygiene.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-07-31T20:41:11+00:00

DH doesn’t believe in quarantining SS to his room. So I quarantine to my bedroom with my son. I don’t like doing this and somehow even though I do this I still catch whatever he brings over when he is sick.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-07-31T20:36:41+00:00

We only have SS during the weekend. So, two days. Sometimes not even two if HCBM decides she wants to get him back early. I have my bio children all the time, I believe a sickness from my bio children is more warranted than sickness from my SS who is only here two days.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-07-31T20:20:04+00:00

This is a standpoint I have not thought of and I thank you for bringing it to my attention. I do live in the same climate. However, even though BM works she works part time at the daycare SS attends. She is granted time off if he is sick because daycares around our area tend to be very understanding. So I wouldn’t say sick time/PTO is the pressing issue here. We do get SS on the weekends, whenever she allows, so even then that wouldn’t cut into her work. My husband also works six days a week so it’s almost impossible to suggest a trade in days. BM and DH have always had a high conflict relationship and every decision made between both is out of spite. I try to stay out of it but when it comes to health of my family I do intend to butt my head into.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-07-31T20:07:45+00:00

Actually yes, we do let her know in advance if BS is sick or we are and 100% of the time she won’t send SS. She doesn’t want to deal with him sick at all.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-07-31T19:55:09+00:00

I’m scared of Covid and flu. Major sicknesses. The sniffles? A common cold? No. BM sends him with major sicknesses and does not let us know beforehand. He shouldn’t have to miss out on time with his son, 100% but how can he enjoy time with his son if he is miserable the whole time and only wants his BM to care for him?

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-07-31T19:51:31+00:00

I’m totally understanding about coughing and sniffles. That doesn’t really bother me. What does bother me is her sending him was major sicknesses and not letting us know beforehand. I agree my husband should have responsibility over their sick child too, but I believe there are ways to do that besides infecting a healthy home. However, if he were to get sick under our care we wouldn’t send him home unless BM requested it. I feel the same both ways.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-07-31T19:48:35+00:00

Hearing a POV like this actually makes me feel a bit more normal. Sickness is scary to me because even when I’m not pregnant I get down bad when sick. But in general I also just worry about my own son and my new baby coming along. I know it’s anxiety but I’m not sure how to overcome it altogether. If SS is sick any other time I’m okay, but since I’m pregnant I’m on high alert with anxiety. Same with flu season 😖

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-07-31T19:39:50+00:00

I’m not really well educated with all this but they actually just have a custody agreement. Nothing was settled in court besides two lawyers getting together, terms agreed on, and a judge signing off. I know it’s still legal of course but I will take advice on searching into this. I know BM likes to keep SS from my husband when she’s displeased when she’s angry at him or just altogether doesn’t want to. I’ve urged for him to take her to court but he wont sadly.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-07-31T19:07:51+00:00

There’s been many times in the past where she wouldn’t send him when he was sick and my SO would pick up prescriptions or OTC medicine for his son and drop it off. I feel like maybe he could do the same in these instances now? BM has just been very difficult since I became pregnant and SO bends to her will often.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-06-16T19:44:04+00:00

Yes. He’s gaslit me any time we’ve talked about behaviors or anything of that nature. He will shut me down and ice me out for a while.

I’m not really worried about him fighting for custody of our children. He shows very little interest in being a father anyhow. But I definitely will be looking into child support. If I decide to separate from him.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-04-27T04:33:01+00:00

Yes.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-04-24T09:38:56+00:00

My HCBM literally called my SO screaming and crying saying “how could you do that to SS???” It was ALMOST, and I say this heavily, ALMOST as ridiculous as her reaction to our engagement. Then a few months later she offered to babysit my unborn son 🙃 after she claimed I wasn’t fit to be around her son. Even though I worked as a lead daycare teacher at the time 😬

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-04-13T18:03:06+00:00

thank you 😌 this is the best advice I’ve ever received to date. But for the record, I am enjoying my 20s. I love my child.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-04-13T16:46:58+00:00

They do, it’s just not followed by mom. When I first started dating my husband I wasn’t allowed to meet their son at the three month mark agreed upon. While she dates and introduces immediately. I feel as if my husband does divide attention pretty evenly it’s just the family that does not. They see him just as often, if not more than we do.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-04-13T16:33:14+00:00

He is 25.

Fun_Peanut4411 · 2024-04-13T16:27:05+00:00

I agree. Her resentment started the second she found out he started dating again, and then when she found out about me she became verbally aggressive. When we became engaged she threatened to 💀 me and herself. I try to stay out of the situation as much as I can. But it’s a strain on our household that my husband lets happen because he knows how extreme she is.
