My son had samonella as a 2 year old and was hospitalized for 16 days. He had lymph nodes reacting to a horrid ear infection that wasn't getting better due to the samonella they couldn't diagnose because of massive doses of antibiotics. He had the lymph node removed during two surgeries to figure out what was wrong with him. Then the news broke the story that our local grocery chain had tainted milk products which I was giving him. Then at 13 he again had a reactive lymph node and it was decided to remove that one as well. No known cause as to why he was reacting or what he was reacting to. He went on to have several other surgeries, pilinidol cyst and ACL surgery on his knee in his teen years. He also took Accutane for six months at the same time. We have many things we can blame! He seemed to have an immune system that over reacted to things from a young age. And I don't think it ever was normal. He was dx with Crohn's a month ago at the age of 27. Symptoms were going on for about a year before hand. Although he now tells us that he didn't have normal BM's for years and never thought much of it!

[QUOTE="Fourlocos, post: 239611, member: 80776"] My son had samonella as a 2 year old and was hospitalized for 16 days. He had lymph nodes reacting to a horrid ear infection that wasn't getting better due to the samonella they couldn't diagnose because of massive doses of antibiotics. He had the lymph node removed during two surgeries to figure out what was wrong with him. Then the news broke the story that our local grocery chain had tainted milk products which I was giving him. Then at 13 he again had a reactive lymph node and it was decided to remove that one as well. No known cause as to why he was reacting or what he was reacting to. He went on to have several other surgeries, pilinidol cyst and ACL surgery on his knee in his teen years. He also took Accutane for six months at the same time. We have many things we can blame! He seemed to have an immune system that over reacted to things from a young age. And I don't think it ever was normal. He was dx with Crohn's a month ago at the age of 27. Symptoms were going on for about a year before hand. Although he now tells us that he didn't have normal BM's for years and never thought much of it! [/QUOTE]
