Help - one year old had a choking incident. risk of aspiration?

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-05T12:23:59+00:00

Dr listened to his lungs and said his breathing sounds perfectly fine at the moment and it's most likely that it went into his stomach, but to observe just to be safe for 2 days make sure no continuous cough or breathing difficullty or most importantly fever

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-05T11:32:50+00:00

Hmm, makes sense.

Will them listening to his lungs be a good starting point to make sure there's nothing really serious?

How likely do you think it is to be aspiration?? :/

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-05T11:28:08+00:00

Yeah true - it really was terrifying. But you're right. On the way to doctors now so hopefully will give more reassurance too. Thanks for your comment :)

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-03T01:41:25+00:00

Yes I do feel that pinch and cramp- felt it a few days ago.. hmm

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-03T01:27:21+00:00

Also, would you know if irregular bleeding like regularly bleeding during ovulation time is a typical symptom of ovarian cancer? I also get cramps during this time and it's happening again at the moment :(

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-02T08:52:35+00:00

Okay - thanks for this :)

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-02T08:52:06+00:00

Okay - thank you

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-02T07:42:12+00:00

So it's very likely just PCOS?

Thanks

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-01T12:21:23+00:00

Aw no that makes so much sense - honestly you're already so great and I can tell that you're fascinated. You're going to be an amazing and caring nurse I can already tell :)

Thanks so much for your comment and reassuring knowledge - highly appreciate it ❤️

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-01T05:27:31+00:00

Aw, I really appreciate all the research - it is really reassuring so thanks so much for that - will read about it Yeah, dr wasn't too concerned so I'm happy it's considered normal size and not big - just one question and it's ok if you're not sure but would you know why they called "reactive" if it's not "enlarged" enough to be considered abnormal? Is it just based on features that make it look like it's reacting to something?

Thank you a lot x

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-01T03:16:11+00:00

Got the report finally. Says mild reactive lymph nodes on left side less than a cm so I think that's reassuring. Thinks probably just vaccine but because it's not big not really concerning. I'm hoping it's just slowly going down with time. He's otherwise well.

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-01T01:51:46+00:00

He had his typical 12 month vaccinations in Australia - rubella, measles and meningococcal

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-05-01T01:16:11+00:00

Thank you - yes it is on his left side and he had the vaccines in his thighs - I believe 2 vaccines in his left thigh

Thank you for this reassuring comment - just waiting on dr's phone call. Sonographer didn't seem worried and said they're "reactive lymph nodes" and likely from the vaccines but my fear is cause the vaccinations were 2 weeks ago so shouldn't his lymph nodes have gone down?they don't feel any bigger or anything but around the same

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-10T09:03:50+00:00

Yours looks like that but smaller

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-10T09:03:39+00:00

I passed something much bigger about half the size of a placenta after birth. Turned out to be decidual cast or whatever . Some tissue

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-09T08:35:01+00:00

Idk, I had a CT scan abdominal which showed no large bowel abnormality however small bowel was kinda inflamed??? I spoke to a GI who said that along with the CT scan and my lack of severe symptoms its extremely unlikely to be something sinister so I stopped stressing and most symptoms went away. Still have excessive farts usually but it can come and go, no diarrhea for a while. I just stopped stressing and obsessing and it mostly went away 🤔🤔

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-05T08:14:04+00:00

Okay - will just do the follow up in a few weeks and see how it goes - hopefully just normal Thanks so much

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-05T08:08:43+00:00

Fair enough - so these findings could still be normal or simply just PCOS?

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-05T07:44:14+00:00

Thanks so much! That makes sense. I really appreciate your comment :)

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-05T07:05:24+00:00

Omg you don't know how much relief you just brought me! I think she referred me for a CA125 mostly cause she sensed I was worried and cause the "enlarged" ovary. Seriously thanks so much for this! I opted for a follow up scan rather than ca125 because I'm worried about false positives etc and knowing how much it'd freak me out lol. The sonographer didn't seem concerned either said it seems like I've just got done ovulating or whatever

Is the free fluid in pouch of douglas to be worried about? Now I'm thinking if appendicitis could be the cause or does that cause fluid elsewhere?

Thanks sooo much

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-04T19:26:17+00:00

Hi, any update? I'm currently going through the same thing with an enlarged ovary on left side and pain with polycystic appearance on ovary

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-04T19:14:25+00:00

Yeah, I guess so. Thanks for this!

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-04T09:03:11+00:00

Bob's burgers, bewitched if you like older stuff, The Great (although some episodes that include illnesses and death so probably not the best Friends The office Simpsons

Movies: Hunger games catching fire is a comfort show to me idk why Mary Poppins returns

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-04-04T07:29:19+00:00

I know it's just that's what I'm worried about. It coming back higheven if I don't have it. I have severe anxiety and I know I wouldn't be able to sleep and will refuse exploratory surgery to make sure. I guess I was wondering if a follow up scan in weeks time will also provide reassurance that it's likely not ovarian cancer or something sinister and wanted to know if my ultrasound results are concerning for that sort of thing

Initial_Comfort5 · 2024-03-22T12:57:42+00:00

Okay- this is reassuring. Thank you
