Patient's question:
When my baby was born, they said there was no G6PD deficiency. Now my baby is one and a half years old, and because of hand, foot, and mouth disease, a blood test result says they have G6PD deficiency again. How is that possible? Previously, when they had a fever and discomfort and took medicine, I told the doctor there was no G6PD deficiency. They even got shots, and everything was fine. How is that possible?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, the baby did not have G6PD deficiency at birth, and now at 1.5 years old, the test results show G6PD deficiency. Medication does not interfere with it, as long as there is no contact with broad beans or broad bean products, there is no problem, and you can take the medication with peace of mind. This is the complete introduction to "Why was it said that my baby did not have G6PD deficiency at birth?" In the end, I wish the patient a speedy recovery and a healthy life.
