So, GP appt was a TOTAL waste of time. I must have seen the most junior GP. She didn't really understand anything about reflux, and after speaking to another GP refused to prescribe any different meds, and said that they aren't allowed to. Bull shit. Absolute bull shit. I got very assertive, and basically said if you are going to leave my child in pain, and refuse to prescribe what are basic reflux medications, then I am going to A&E. She said I would be wasting their time. I said she was wasting mine. Her only solution was to refer me to paeds, and that would be a 4-6 week wait to be seen. I asked her to refer me to where I work. She refused because it is 'out of area'.
Fuck off.
I rang my colleagues, they let the paeds know, and I rocked up at kids A&E where he was seen straight away. He gave a fabulous refusal to feed demo screaming, doing 3 sucks, push bottle away, and vomit it straight back up. That was from the first mouthful, not the usual 3oz before he starts all that. He was showing slight signs of dehydration, and he possibly has a staph infection also.
We now have an increased dose of Omeperazole (3mls twice a day), Ranitidine (0.4mls 3 times a day), Dompeidone (3mls 3 times a day). Plus they have given him Penecillin V incase of infection as his tonsils are slightly swollen and red personally I think that is the acid reflux and his bottom between the cheeks is slightly red. Plus lactulose as he didn't like the look of the hard stools he is passing which O lovingly demonstrated the minute the Registrar asked about his bowel movements!.
I'm exhausted. Fatima At least one of us has made an effort. I was going to have my hair cut. Sorry, you will have to see it in its shitty state! Also, ironed clothes? I'm not sure I even have clean clothes. I did ask DP to do a wash. Will see what I can pull out. Think I'll just have to get up early and organised in the morning instead!
Sorry if I look like a tramp
