UGH! A new specialist to see!

[Guest guest]

Looks like we are now going to be adding, once again, a urologist to

the list of specialists. I thought we were done with that area of

expertise. Max's voiding problems are getting worse, to the point

where he wet his bed last night and almost had a couple of accidents

yesterday and today while at school and out socially this evening.

I can't think of too much that is more embarrassing for a 17 year

old than a fear of wetting his pants.

Dr. H. was really good, though. I emailed her this morning, begging

her to reconsider prescribing meds for Max until we get to the

urologist. This evening she emailed a scrip for DDAVP, a nasal

spray Max can use at night to help keep him dry overnight. She also

insists that I take him to her recommended dr. in NYC at Cornell.

For now, I have an appt. for Max to see someone in town, about

10 minutes from here. That is for Thursday. But I will call the

dr. in NYC and see how long we have to wait. The last thing I need

is for her to be angry that I did not take Max to someone that she

considers the best. I figure I can take him to our dr. first and

then hers when the time comes.
