In our case...the dr was wrong, and we were right that there was something else going on. I think you have to go with your instinct...and ask God for peace. I think that when there is no peace, there is truth that needs to be sought out.Cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17239601805710235646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20895358.post-49513990343571553352010-04-07T21:23:37.140-04:002010-04-07T21:23:37.140-04:00faith is a blessing as are all your children,yes i...faith is a blessing as are all your children,yes i think your concerns should be ackwnolaged,as for letting it go, give it to God, ask & listen, he hear's and we here back, you've trusted him so far and from the outside looking in GOD IS NOT ONLY GOOD HE IS GREAT!!thinking and praying for you RRJRrichardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20895358.post-51388454077409574232010-04-07T20:32:56.750-04:002010-04-07T20:32:56.750-04:00I feel for you.

You'll know when you've arrived there though. Keep pressing forward, you are her only advocate. And it's true... mommies know things... things about our children that Doctors don't.

I would be firm about it and say something like 'it may not be the right path, but it would make me a lot more comfortable if I went and saw them' or something like that.<br /><br />Good luck in your journey. *hugs*Valariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05905180017349610912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20895358.post-56451668528324779142010-04-07T18:25:40.041-04:002010-04-07T18:25:40.041-04:00I think what you are going thru is normal...to a d...I think what you are going thru is normal...to a different degree I felt like that when J was first diagnosed....it took a different Dr way more tests and we found out the first diagnosis was correct but it sure made me feel a lot better to have ruled out everything else completely!Lala's worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14888227099123265114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20895358.post-20065717582673096502010-04-07T15:47:56.785-04:002010-04-07T15:47:56.785-04:00You absolutely have the right to have this looked ...You absolutely have the right to have this looked into further. Sometimes it works better to have a face-to-face conversation with your doctor. Call the office and see if they would be willing to schedule a kid-free office visit, then go in armed with facts and figures. Take the information you sent to the doctor as well as evidence of the symptoms you see in Grace, dates, frequencies, etc. Doctors are scientific people by nature and they do best when you hand them empirical evidence instead of generalities. Your doctor wants what is best for your child too (or should) and if you can help him or her gather the evidence, they should be more than willing to look at it.<br /><br />If you have the sit-down with the doctor and they are <i>still</i> doing the brain-injury cop-out, then it might be time to start the search for a new doctor. <br /><br />Good luck!!!A.

I am not talking about my feelings of worry or other emotions- the gut instinct is much different. I encourage you to keep searching for more knowledge but don't let it consume you.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13310849568657464753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20895358.post-11535199891900810352010-04-07T15:11:28.079-04:002010-04-07T15:11:28.079-04:00You can do this search with balance and you won...You can do this search with balance and you won't miss out on anything...<br />You are a good mom and you have a good husband and you have good friends and family to back you upAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06968915580460510542noreply@blogger.com
