Olivia's Dental Surgery... Question

[Guest guest]

Olivia's going in on Tuesday to get 4-8 stainless steel crowns on

her molars, we went over every option with the dentist and putting

her under is the only way we can do it. Osteogenesis Imperfecta

(brittle bone disease) is the main reason that she has to be put

under, if she fights him her jaw can break or if we had to hold her

down we could break her shoulder, arm, etc. The dentist was open to

RSS and listened to what I had to say about fasting and hypo-g but

passed it off to the anesthetist (sp). I had a 5 min argument with

the booking lady as to why Olivia needed the anesthetic consult the

day before surgery not the morning of surgery, well I finally got my

way but I'm not sure if she understood the seriousness of it.

My question is, if they won't admit her the night before (monday

night) for an IV do I scrap the whole thing?? Olivia spills ketones

almost every morning as it is and the booking lady wouldn't tell me

what time Olivia is booked for, then with it being dental she can't

eat for a while after. I will be bringing all of my RSS info from

MAGIC with me but I was wondering if there is anything else that I

can say or do that will help.

Thanks!
