Hello Nancy,
My son Aaron is also 19,he is going through low globulin count now
even though we were told that monthly dose of ivig should help. Other
counts are holding he is also being monitored for lung nodules we will
be checking on that again after christmas.He he has also had the mouth
soars recently. sitting here writing this and seeing what everyone has
to go through is so hard to understand what the body is doing.I am so
glad that when i can i am able to come here and not feel alone, even
though i wish nobody would have to go through Evans. as my friend Rita
says...P.U.S.H. Pray Until Something Happens..
