Called back to consultant after DS brain MRI

hello, my DS aged 7 has been having nausea, sickness and headaches since November and through lots of pushing managed to get an MRI which was on Monday eve - we were told to expect results in 2 weeks. Today I received a phone call from the paediatric consultants secretary asking myself and hubby to go in tomorrow at noon. I’m terrified. Has anyone else got experience of this? What’s scared me most is that they have asked me to bring hubby. They have requested that we don’t bring DS. I don’t even know what I’m asking for on this thread, maybe someone that has been in a similar situation? Thanks x

OP that is great news. Stay strong.

God, that’s a horrible thing to do. I wish they’d just TELL you over the phone, and then you could absorb the shock, and sensibly discuss options when you’ve gathered your wits a bit and maybe got some information.

Thinking of you. It’s not likely to be nothing, in the circumstances, but I hope it’s something treatable. It’s likely that you caught it early, thanks to your efforts, so that may help.

Eeksteek Please RTFT or at least all OP's posts.

Fingers crossed for a fast and full recovery.

As soon as you can at every opportunity get sleep op.i no u want to spend every moment thinking,being with your dc,researching.but what will power you through is nutrition and sleep.theyvare the first things to go and sadly your body will not allow it for long.you get so much strength simply from sleep and food.to do with thinking and ability to cope.easier said than done but a must.
