Guest guest Posted April 1, 2000 Report Share Posted April 1, 2000 Paxton had to go to the ped. yesterday due to a stomach virus and she had not been able to keep anything, including meds, in her for 2 days. Nothing unusual about that, but on the way she started telling me that her heart felt funny. She was having tachycardia. Has had several episodes of chest pain over the last few monthes. The rheumy and I felt that the chest pain was probably from her reflux and changed her med. Now I am not so sure. We go pick up a halter monitor for her on the 10th. She will wear it for 11 days in hopes to catch one of the tachy episodes on a strip. Then, on the 21st she goes to see a pediactric cardiologist. I am pretty worried about this. Has anyone else had anything similar happen with their children? Our official dx for the moment is "periodic tachycardia with chest pain". Any help or advice would be appreciated. This jra is something else. Just when you think things are getting better some other complication slaps you in the face. Please keep us in your prayers.
