| My 13 year old daughter started complaining about her right side hurting.. badly yesterday, she was with her dad. He brought her home and I took her to her dr this afternoon, he was really concerned it may be her appendix and sent us directly to the ER at children's. They took us back immediately. She's hooked up to the IV and an ultrasound was done but the results are inconclusive. Waiting on Dr's to come back, he's concerned because her belly is swollen on that side and it's completely tender to the touch and she can't walk upright. This is a scary dejavu for me, same er I was in with Jacob. They are trying to decide if a CT scan will be next or try more ultrasound. |

| She's being admitted tonight. Sigh.... I was hoping to never have to spend another night in that hospital. They want to keep her for observation. The dr isn't totally convinced we are dealing with appendicitis just yet since it hasn't been long enough since her symptoms started to do a CT scan and get a definite answer so we will stay tonight and reevaluate tomorrow. |

| She's about the same as she was yesterday. Her blood count is also the same, not showing any sign of infection, but she's still in so much pain. It's very odd. And frustrating. We are waiting for the surgeon to come in, this will be the same surgeon that worked on Jacob, so at the very least, I know she's in excellent hands if they decide to go in and look at that appendix. They are really trying to avoid a CT scan at this point. Which doesn't make much sense to me buy I'm trusting the Dr's and the process for now. |
