Please help! 4 yr old nephew has the following symtoms..?
My nephew has lost alot of weight, eyes are sunk in, will not eat hardly at all. My neice took him to the doctor and the urine test showed an abnormally high wbc in his urine. He is thirsty and will drink but hardly urinates. He has been sick a few times in the last few months with flu-like symptoms. The dr. put him on Bactrim and said to bring him back in 10 days to do more testing, blood work, etc... Can anyone tell me what they think this is? His grandfather died of throat cancer the year before he was born and his mom died two years before he did of cancer. I'm not scared of any answers you may give and any input would be appreciated. Thanks and God Bless.

Trust your doctor- he will get to the bottom of this. If your doctor gives answers you are not happy about, trust your instinct and get a second opinion.

All the while remember that kids are all different and grow up differently.

Be persistent and judge your instincts.

Go Pick him up and bring him to the emergency room NOW!!!!!
He doesn't have cancer, rest assured but, you need to get him to the ER NOW (or yesterday!) If you Love him and want him to Live get him to the ER NOW!!!!!

Thyroid, diabetes, stress. There are lots of things that could be causing this.

There is no point trying to figure this out over the net... you will only drive yourself crazy. Keep talking with the doctors and ask questions. Determining what is going on will require some patience.

I pray for your nephew. Your nephew so cute! I have no idea, doctor can find what her solve is. It sound alike kind of Heath Discovery on TV kind of mystery. Don't worry, doctor will tell you as soon. I pray for you God answer for you.

I am not good doctor. Doctor will tell you what the mystery solve for you. Remember don't worry about her. God take care of you and her too.

Hi Char. CDRN gave you excellent advice. Your nephew's condition is very serious and should be taken seriously by a competent doctor. "Guessing" at the diagnosis and trying 10 days of antibiotics is a serious mis-judgment by that doctor. Seek more testing by specialists NOW. Best wishes and good luck.

take your nephew to the Dr. ?if could be Celiac disease, uti can cause these problems but may also have dehydration. it is sometimes easy to diagnose one problem when in fact there May be more than one problem going on at a time. best wishes

A four year old losing weight is alarming to me. He needs further testing and not in 10 days. I would take him to a hospital that specializes in children. Take him to the emergency room and that way he will get the attention he needs. Good Luck........

I really wouldn't even want to guess this one. Take these pills and wait 10 days is not satisfactory though. This child needs a second opinion ASAP. If you can't get him in to somebody in private practice right away bring him to a hospital that specializes in peds or has a peds wing. Best of luck.
