[quote=Anonymous]Strep has many ways to present. In some cases your or your child could be a carrier - doctors can test for that. But also be aware that even with antibiotic treatment the strep may not be full treated and can re-appear once the antibiotics wear off. Our ADHD child was to be strep infection free for tonsil removal. Only problem was, even with heavy antibiotic prescribed to alleviate the infection, we could not get him free of strep. The doctors finally acknowledged that until his tonsils were removed he would not be strep-free. His strep symptoms varied from fevers, sore throats, strawberry tongue, rashes, stomach upset, etc. It came down to when he lost his appetite, only wanted liquids we knew another strep infection was blossoming. Once is tonsils were removed he did in fact become strep free. [/quote]
