To still be very worried

[edinburghlass1991]

Dd 5 had an eye test on Saturday it was discovered that she had radioed nerves at the back of both eyes she was sent up to hospital where a doctor was waiting at the door for her she got some scans last night ultrasound and they looked into them again . He said it’s probably ok but wants to referrer for a mri scan :( which she will get Monday or Tuesday. It’s all very urgent sounding. Dd has been getting headaches as well which made it worse when I told them :( iam so worried

I don’t know what I expect to happen unless someone can look it to the future for me

That sounds scary but the doctor said it will probably be ok, and they have to double check things just to be on the safe side.

She’s probably absolutely fine. Hang in there

Understandably you're really worried. I think you have to be guided by the doctor who is referring her for the MRI that it is probably ok. I should imagine they wouldn't take any risks and follow up with MRI to be 100%.

Don’t meet trouble halfway, OP! I doubt your doc would say it’s probably ok if there was a high chance of a serious problem - they wouldn’t want to give false reassurance. Lots of common minor things need to be checked out just to exclude the odd rare nasty one.
Sufficient unto the day are the evils thereof, etc. Concentrate on supporting DD and not worrying her.
Trust the doctors to do their job, and diagnose and treat this as required.
And offload your own worries to friends, family, MN or in prayer. You won’t have to deal with this alone.

I had an eye emergency last year. It’s VERY worrying, especially as you can’t actually see the back of the eyes. The opticians take anything like this very seriously, as do the doctors. It’s their job. Even if slightly worried they treat it as an emergency. I would be very reassured by the doctors words. The extra check will just be to confirm what they already know - which is its not too bad.
I know it’s hard not to worry but hopefully she will be fine. You are a great mum making sure she goes for the eye test and she is now in the best possible hands. At least you haven’t long to wait.
Fingers crossed for you.

I have been hiding my worry she lost her first baby tooth this morning so she’s quite excited to spent her pound. I know doctors like to. E sure and it’s a good thing as it’s quick this is why I love the nhs !

She’s getting seen tomorrow got a call. Just want to know she’s fine

I hope it goes well for you tomorrow.

She’s getting an mri today. When she saw the doctor he looked worried and wouldn’t say what he thought:( I’ve never been so scared

Hand hold for you... must be really scary but the old cliche is true that you are in the best place and hopefully they can get to the bottom of it soon.

Op-ed! Good luck OP. Hope all goes well!

God, I hate predictive text!

Thinking of you and your DD OP. Hand holding with you xx

How scary. Thinking of you and hope it is sorted soon .

Good luck OP, hope it's all good news

Thinking of you and your DD

When she saw the doctor he looked worried and wouldn’t say what he thought He wouldn't say what he thought because it's so unlikely and he doesn't want to worry you.

By the way, what are "radioed nerves"?

It’s done she was so brave! Re radioed nerves I have no idea ! It’s swollen optic disc that they found

glad it's all done - have they told you where they go from here.

Just wait for a call for the next step

good luck, do keep us updated will be thinking of you and sending good vibes.

OP posted in chat to say her DD got the all-clear, thank goodness.
