Guest guest Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 Hello everyone, We came home from the hospital last night and we're in NYC to see Dr. H by 3pm today. after 15 min of being disaplined she calmed down and began to set a treatment plan for Madison. We are going back to be admitted to prespiterian hospital in 2-3 weeks and she is going to have yet another surgery. Dr. H wants her to keep her g tube and now place a second tube ( the j tube). We are going to the other hospital because Dr. H knows and trust the surgent there Dr. spigland ( she did maddy's surgery the first time). We also touched on a few more problems. We knew she had Hypoglycemia but now it turns it out she also has Hyperglcemia!!! When her sugar drops, in an effort to get it back up we give her more sugar. But then she has like 3 days of really terrible sugars we're talkin like 523!!! Now since this has happened so much it has caused her heart to be inlarged. She has to have a whole cardiac work up but she feels that it may have caused her right atrial heart damage. Also dropping blood sugars so often can cause brain damage so now we have to keep an eye out for that but so far she seems to be ok in that department. Then as if this wasn't enough it turns out that from the GHT she is begining early puberty. So now we have to figure out if it's better to stop the GHT. What a mess. So now we sit and wait till Dr. H gets back from vacation. But on the up side to things looks like we will make it to the convention for the first time!!!!
