probably long lol
rung our Doc in the morning just for him to take a look at her as an emergency to see if she could be dehydrated....my emergency appointmant was for 3 hours later...still fuming
went to A&E instead
wish I had seen your comment sally sparrow!
she got seen quite quickly , had a ct scan. she brought up green watery stuff as soon as we got there, but they were not concerned
She was still asleep , I thought it might still be a bug but as the day went on (on a ward by now) i was more convinced it was her shunt. they did a CT scan which ahowed her ventricles were a little enlarged to what they would expect but they had nothing to compare with . Now loooking back they only had to take one look to see how seepy she was and put 2 and 2 together
took ages for the ct scan to come back, baring in mind she needs to see a neuro surgeon within 3 hours , we were there 12hrs in the end :(
they rung Alder Hey who decided they wanted her there, but that took ages, by this times I was panicking,she didnt look like my daughter, her forhead and near eyes were bigger, I was 100% certain it was her shunt. But the nurse said daont worry, they arent worried, we havent been told to blue light you over. But we did, lights and siren to Alder Hey.
Neuro Surgeon saw her asap, mentioned maybe needng a new shunt but wasnt sure. then he came back 5 mins later , had another feel of her shunt and said" right , she is going for a shunt revision now" (shutnt replacement() and that it was now an emergency nd she was going tachicardic (cant spell) so off she went for emergency brain surgery :(
she got a full new shunt, they had to leave the old one in as they were worried if they tried to remove it she could have a bleed in the brain and have more brain damage
came home today :o she is doing well, I however are going to take much much longer :(
sorry for the waffle! and thank you so much for your support xxxxx :)
