Calcification behind eyes of 14 year old

Calcification behind eyes of 14 year old

I spent all day yesterday at the ER with my 14 year old son. Symptoms were: Headache (only when moving eyes), nasuea, vomiting (twice) (after vomiting head pain got better), lung pain especially when taking deep breaths, chills, hot flashes, sinus congestion, and fever(101.9). Did lots of blood tests (can't begin to tell you what all for). EKG normal. Cat scan revealed Chronic Sinusitis causing pluracy in lungs as well as abnormalaties in optic nerves in both eyes and calcicification behind both eyes. Dr. said finding was very odd in a patient his age. Said that you normally find that sort of eye condition in a much older diabetic patient. I am eager to get more info on this since it is a weekend and won't be able to see a Pediatric Opthamologist for a few days. I can't find info online and as of 8:30 this morning the PO on here has already recieved his daily limit of questions.  Has anyone else had any experience with this or can share some insight?

Sorry about your son. Maybe Dr. Hagan will be here later today, or you can post a question one the eye expert forum at midnight.

Have you searced the posts and the archives here. Have you been to Google?

Stay with med help. you can gain a lot from the doctors here.

Sorry, I have no expertise in the area of causes of calcification in pediatric patients.
