daughter diagnosed with PFAPA
My 3 1/2 year old daughter has been diagnosed with PFAPA too. Fortunately her symptoms have been mild, but she used to hit a temp of 105.5 at least once per episode and has had some mild febrile seizure activity.
I believe very firmly, despite what conventional medicine says, that this fever syndrome is primarily related to reactions to vaccinations. My daughter's fevers started 2 weeks after she had her 12 month vaccinations - Hep A and Prevnar. She had had some night terrors prior to this, but no fevers or infection issues. It took me almost 2 years of fevers every 2 or 3 weeks, like clockwork, for me to connect them to the vaccinations, so unfortunately she is currently up-to-date on her childhood vaccinations, except influenza vaccinations. Given a choice I will never have her receive another vaccination!
My daughter has been receiving homeopathic treatments from a homeopath in England and her episodes are growing milder and more far apart. The treatments are aimed at correctling damage from vaccinations.
