  • Summary

  • After a typical pregnancy and birth, Noah came into the world with no cause for concern. That all changed at around 3 weeks old when Noah started to get sick. He developed continuous repertory issues like RSV and pneumonia. He continued getting sick every month and at 19 months old he was scheduled to have his first set of ear tubes placed but was quickly stopped after the doctors found that he had a severe Vascular Ring that they needed to address first. As Noah grew he continued to have different health conditions appear. This caused Brooklyn to question if something else was going on with her son's health. Noah was finally approved for genetic testing at 6 years old and that is when it was confirmed that he had 22q. This diagnosis however did not cure his ongoing resperatory issues. That was corrected after a 24 day stay at the hospiatl when an ENT did another routine chest scope and found a tiny pin hole size opening leading to his lungs. This sealed up the hole and Noah's respatory issues diapered. •••••••••••••••••••  Within this episode we discussed: Constantly sick with respiratory Issues, RSV, Pneumonia Vascular Ring Ear tubes and adenoids removal cyst in his jaws   division of the left subclavian artery Patricia Dubin - ENT Laryngeal Cleft If you would like to contact the 22q Podcast with any questions, comments or if you are interested on being on this podcast email Becky at 22qpodcast@gmail.com.
