Prognosis following bacterial meningitis in toddlers

After 12 days in isolation it was found that he had lost all his hearing, balance etc. He underwent surgery for bilateral cochlear implants 3 weeks later and it has been a lonnnnnnnnnnnng journey since that point. My question relates

Worried about weight, will they do lap if it is needed? And wondering if anyone in similar situation can advise on methods?
Hey ladies Firstly one thing bothering me is that I've recently gained weight. Over the last year-18 months that I've been on the Depo injection I've put on 1st. I'm guessing this is cos of weight gain being a typical side-effect, because I put on 2st in 6 months on the contraceptive implant 6 years

Long and winding road
ok, this is going to be long and I've put off posting before as my history is complicated. I was diagnosed with FAP a rare genetic bowel condition at 8 where I had thousands of polyps in my bowel. I ad my large intestine removed then and a full permenant ileostomy n 2000. Everything was good for a while

My short story...
I keep trying to find a post that describes my situation but I've realised that everyone is different and everyone has such different and unique experiences. I'm 25 and I'm fairly new to this. I was diagnosed with depression about 4 weeks ago although truthfully I think I've been suffering for about

Trying to fall pregnant... help?
Hi all... ive suffered with my endometriosis for 10 years so far, i have had a diagnostic lap which confirmed two spots of the endo on the back of my uterus. I have tried many contraceptives to help control the endo for approx. 5 years (probably not all spelt correctly as i can barely remember)

THE DAY MY WORLD STOOD STILL
THE DAY MY WORLD STOOD STILL It keeps playing on my mind, night after night I don’t know what to do to keep it away from me More to me like a torment, a real grilling torment Every night, as I put my body on the bed, my head on the pillow It comes back, like a stalker that has been following me

How soon can you tell?
Hi everyone, I'm a newbie. My husband and I have decided to try for a baby, after being together for 10 years. This is a very exciting time for us, and I had my contraceptive implant removed yesterday. The Dr told me that fertility comes back almost instantly or at least very quickly. Does anyone

New - Blind and Deaf
My brother was diagnosed with Hughes syndrome 6 months ago. He has lost his hearing and all of his sight in his right eye and very little sight left in his left. He recently had two ops - Cochlear implants. and a tube put behind his eye because of the pressure behind his eye and severe pain.

My Iona Monster
Iona was to breathe by herself when they said she won't. Iona was to wake when they said she couldn't. Iona was to recover from mild addiction to morphine. Iona had to relearn all the things we take for granted that a 19 month old toddler can manage to do, come to think about it EVERYTHING from
