Ds15 will be going to the cardiologist on Wednesday. Please pray for wisdom from the doctors to find what's going on reguardless of if it's heart related or not.
(((HUGS)))) its not fun when I had to take my girls and find out they both have Long Q T's its scary be we have learn to adjusted out life and know when to fold the cards. Good luck and keep us posted.
UGGGGGGGGHHHHHH! I am SO MAD I could just SCREAM!! We spent SIX AND A HALF HOURS in the doctors office.. MOST of the time was just waiting on the dr to come in.. They did an echocardiogram and that took about 40 minutes. While my son was getting that done, the doctor was interrogating me as to why he has been dealing with this so long.. And asking me step by step what exactly the issue was OVER AND OVER AGAIN.. THEN my son came back and he did the same to him.. GRRRRRR!! We don't really know anything more than we did other than he MAY have a brain tumor, he MAY have asthma, and he is PROBABLY dehydrated.. They are supposed to be scheduling a stress test for next week.. And we go back in July for a follow up.. He does have a heart monitor for the next 24 hours that we will mail back to them on Friday. That took about 10 minutes to get hooked up.. And we are supposed to get a referral to a neurologist just to make sure he isn't having issues from the concussion that he had last August... I just don't understand the reasoning behind the repeat questions and why we sat there for hours on end without anything going on.. I want to find another Cardiologist, but my husband says that it will go against him on his medical records.. If that is true, HOW????
I would find another as soon as now. If there was any questions I would want them answer now. I would of never left the office if they said it may be brain tumor they would of had one mean mamma bear there I always want to know the answer. Yes get another doctor that's to long of wait.
I don't know what I would do in your shoes, but waiting so long to find out what is wrong would drive me crazy! Praying you can get this figured out much sooner than July!
We have been dealing with this since AUGUST! It's rediculous.. They see us and then send us somewhere else.. Today he is dizzy and laid down.. I wrote it down on a note to send back with the monitor.. I really feel like a lot of this is asthma even though he doesn't feel that he is having a hard time breathing and he isn't weezing.. It's only after physically exerting himself do the symptoms appear.. Today we went on a 3 mile walk and he was fine when he got up and during the walk but a few hours later he complained of feeling bad.. This happens EVERY SINGLE TIME.. And I'm going to tear into that doctor if he treats us like we are lying again.. I'm SO sick of being treated this way! This is happening, we are NOT making it up! This kid is miserable! He can't do anything without feeling bad!
I know you have been through a lot with your son and they have checked for different things, but I just wondered if they have checked him for hyperthyroidism? (I hope I spelled that correctly.)
I agree with Beth... also when my daughter was going through it thats when they found Long Q T's I agree momix3 be a bear and don't let them walk on you anymore. I remember one doctor telling me one time you know your kid better then we do if you don't talk for them no one will hope you get your answers soon
