My 4 year old son has been sick

My 4 year old son has been sick much of the past year. The doctors first thought it was allergies or asthma, but he's not responding too well to the medicines that he is on. He's just getting so tired of being sick. He's not really acting like himself anymore. His mom and I are really worried about him and are praying that he can get the help he needs. He's going in for a CT scan next week because the pulmonologist thinks it might be his allergies.

Updated Mar 12th, 2008:

Results from Caleb's CT Scan: His chest and lungs were clear. However, it showed a massive sinus infection behind his cheekbones and between the eyes. This infection has been around about 4 months. It first showed up and we knew about in December, but we thought his antibiotics got it under control but apparently not. He's on more antibiotics for now, and we'll check him again in a week to see he's improving and may have to have another CT Scan, and if it doesn't clear up he will likely have to have sinus surgery. Thanks for praying for him.

Updated May 2nd, 2008:

My son Caleb is going to have to have sinus surgery on May 14th. The ENT doctor said that there is a stagnant pooling area in his sinuses that won't clear on its own. If you think about him, please lift him up in prayer.

Updated May 29th, 2008:

My son Caleb had sinus surgery, and he came through it just fine. Now he's breathing better than ever. We discovered that the problem is the mold in our basement that he's allergic to. So we had our mold cleaned up, and it's unbelievable how wonderful he seems to be doing so far. Praise the Lord. Thank you all for your prayers.

Dear God, I pray for this little boy with such a painful infliction. Help clear up this infection either through medicine or even SWIMMING. Maybe God brought me to this site today to pass that along. Whatever the case, know I am praying for your son.

Dear God, Thank You, Father, for medicines and procedures that clear infections. At age 4 my son had adenoids removed which gave relief. Thank You, Abba, for whatever method You choose for healing this boy as You did my son. Take away all anxiety.

Dear God, I pray that you would clear up Caleb's sinus infection. I pray that when doctors see him the next time that they will find no sign of any infections. In Jesus name, Amen.

Dear God, Praise You Lord for working in Your chosen method to heal this young boy. Thank You for revealing the basement mold allergy. Thank You that this is now something to pray thanks about rather than an on-going concern. You are awesome God
