She has been to the surgery (and ambulanced to hospital) several times.
The last time, I had to take her because mum daren't have any more time off work.
I was 'reprimanded' for taking her and the GP did a huge eye roll after saying that she would refer her to a consultant - because I told her that she had already been referred a week before. The tests done - pushing and pulling the doctors hands, temp, blood pressure, ear check, mouth check, eye check, listening to chest must have reassured them that she's ok.
She's happily drawing pictures now.
She's now eating normally.
No painkillers today so far.
I've no idea how she can appear perfectly normal and then wake up in pain. But we're assured that she's 'safe' waiting for a consultation.
I'll ask mum to ring doctors tomorrow if she's sick again.
WRT other things going on - her youngest son had an eeg Mon to Wed two weeks ago. She had a phone call this week to say that she had to ring and make an urgent appointment for the epilepsy clinic - which is this Monday. So we're expecting a positive result. His routine appointment wasn't until end of January.
The last time we went to that clinic we mentioned that her youngest had a speech and language assessment upcoming in November and that he had leapfrogged his older brother who has been waiting for assessment a year longer and hadn't had a appointment yet. She seemed concerned that both boys have speech delay. We mentioned that there are conditions within the family that are possibly affecting all three children. She said possibly.
It's taking years to muddle through this process.
