What Causes Chronic Fevers With Yeast Infections?

My granddaughter is two years old at the end of this mounth. She has been sick for 1 year and 6 mounths and the doctors can never find anything. She has on and off high fevers and throws up white cottagecheese looking, scabby rasied red bumps everywhere, lots of yeast infections, cough, runny and stuffy nose, respatory problems and itchy all over.

Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi...by what you quote, if I were your treating pediatrician, I would consider Immunodeficiency - either acquired or congenital. Mu probabilities will be -
1. Primary immunodeficiency
2. HIV infection.
Am sorry to say this but we have to rule it out.
