Really worried about daughter.
She’s 15 for context. Woke me up about 2am- excruciating pain in middle of chest- really tearful saying her chest hurts more when she lays down or tries to take a deep breath. Gave OTC painkillers- tried distraction etc. Sat downstairs to see if painkillers helped. They didn’t. At 4am I brought her to A&E as she was beside herself in pain.
Triaged in Peads V quickly, ECG fine. Obs normal. Awaiting X-ray but I’ve asked if this could be linked to starting contraceptive pill a month ago (progesterone only). Doctor has pulled a face and he’s said it’s unlikely. No blood tests at this point, I’m worried that she potentially has a blood clot due to pain and where it is. I’m not great at being strong and firm but feel like this X-ray will come back clear and we will be sent home with muscular pain!l
Should I push further?
