And I agree, be pushy and don't feel bad about it! I hope you can get hooked up with a good specialist, that seems to be the key in these type of situations.

Please, Flashy, don't ever hesitate to come here to vent, OK? I echo what Witchy said -- I don't know the symptoms/complications of Kawasaki's disease, but when you said stiff joints I immediately thought of Lyme's. When I had it, my joints were so stiff I literally could barely move. Definitely seek out other specialists if you feel it's necessary. And jingles that you start getting some answers that satisfy your concerns.

Good instincts Witchy. We just got home from the peds and they are sending her for some additional testing. They did some basic neuro tests in the office and she's having a bit of trouble with her coordination. I had noticed it at home, that she seemed a little clumsy, but chalked it up to the stiffness in her joints. Anyway I'm glad I went in.. and honestly they were very receptive and seemed to agree she is not quite on track like they had hoped. She looked better at her check up last week than she does this week. Thanks to all you guys for the jingles, and for letting me blab about this on here. I am so worried about her I just want to cry sometimes, though haven't let myself do it yet... maybe I should! I could use a drink and a good sobfest! She goes back to the cardiologist Monday as well so we'll see what they have to say. |

Oh Flash my heart aches for you. I wish I had you as my advocate. I know the medical world and all the dsiconnects. It is a full time job to keep up with it all! Hugs to your Kena girl and keep your nose to the grindstone! You know your daughter best! We love to hear from you so never fear we are near!

I really hope she gets better soon. My neighbor's son came down the same disease just as suddenly a few years ago. I will ask her this weekend if she has any tips for you. |

Sometimes a good cry helps to make you feel better -- it relieves stress, right? A glass of wine won't hurt, either. Funny that I also thought of Lyme, too, and recently talked to someone who said some research has shown that some patients with MS have been treated for Lyme, too, even though their Lyme results were negative and had huge improvements. I think that immune system issues can get really complicated and it would be easy to overlook something "simple" like Lyme if a patient already had a dx of MS or Kawasaki or something. Glad you went to the dr. and that they were glad you brought her in.....keep after them, but remember to give yourself a break too.

...if I would have followed my instincts this time last year, I would have spent A LOT less time in the hospital and probably not spent any time at all in ICU. You keep on pushing darling, NO ONE knows your child better than you do.

Flashy-I know that you being a strong advocate for your little girl is the best thing for her, and don't ever back down. And venting here is always welcome. I'm glad the docs seem to be listening to you, and trying to find out what's wrong and how to fix it as quickly as possible. If there isn't a big name pediatric specialist available for a second opinion locally they can always consult with Children's Hospital in DC, the Birmingham Alabama Children's is also world class, and City of Hope in LA is wonderful, with today's technology they can consult with specialists anywhere face-to-face instantly. I don't think you can have too many docs working on this and you never know who will have the one bit of knowledge that makes a difference. I'm jingling like crazy that tomorrow you come here and say she's feeling better. Edited by JanM, Nov 18 2010, 06:53 PM.
