Did the child receive Prevnar-7 and recent Pneumovax?  Were repeat titers done ( suggest 23 serotypes). Were the subtypes normal?  How high was the ESR?  Were there any polyps?  Was screening done for CF?  Were endoscopically directed cultures performed?  What was the balance of the CBC results including RBC and WBC morphology?  Was the anemia and elevated Fe worked up completely?  Folate levels? Any B12 supplements?  Diphtheria and Haemophilus titers?
