Worms?

[Eenee]

Ok so I have visibly seen worms in all three kids ewwww I know! Creeps me out! Youngest being 6 months. And went to see pharmacist and treated me like an idiot telling me babies don't get worms and that he can't have treatment so I have to see doctor.

Has anyone had a child around 6 months treated for worms and if so what dose etc were they given. Can't get into see GP until next week!

Can you try another doctor?

[Eenee]

He has never seen a doctor before and I have his first appointment coming up in a couple of weeks. Don't really want to go to the doctors every week for the next three lol especially because last minute doctors around here are crappy and wouldn't know anyway.

I ended up ringing Rodney Whyte at monash medical and spoke to one of his colleagues so I got the type of medication and dose now. Just have to go back to the pharmacy!

I think it goes by weight etc doesnt it? For sure there are products for babies! and how weird that he said that babies dont get them hahaha! Worms discriminate i guess

[Eenee]

Ahhhh back to the drawing board they don't make the one for babies anymore. I rang back monash but they can't get back to me until tomorrow now.

[surprised]

Is that a person? How do you know of this number to call? Please explain

[Eenee]

Yes it is Tegam he works at monash he has colleagues to so they answer phone as well when you call. Sometimes you have to call quite a few times to even get through.
It's on google, just google Rodney Whyte and his name and contact details come up.
