Re: dr's visit today

[Guest guest]

Good luck with CPS. I had them here the other day. Freaking ridiculous. Because

of 's absences from school, they have dr's notes. Watch your daughter

with that cold. Is it in her chest ? I have tachycardia (fast heartrate) from

pmeumonia back in 2000. I had a cold and went to health ctr. dr says either you

are doing drugs and you need drug counseling ir you are having panic attack and

need psychiatrist, there's no reason for your heart to beat this fast or

erratic. 2 days later went to ER and had pneumonia which turned into myocarditis

and had a septal infarct.

same in 2005. Now my valves are sclerotic from the scar tissue and my EKG's are

so bad. My heart was severely damaged. I take Xanax to keep my heart regular. My

blood pressure is 82/42 and my HR is like 140. On xanax its between 90 something

and 120. keep an eye on her for pneumonia, please. Mine was viral, not

bacterial.

Subject: [ ] dr's visit today

Date: Saturday, January 30, 2010, 1:29 AM

had a dr's appoint. today.

The lab work came back and 's strep level was at like 350 and it

should be at like 100 (according to her LLMD).  So now a switch from the

omnicef to amoxicillian 3x a day and doxy 1x a day.   (

She is also fighting a head cold, and her resting heart rate was 120.  They

did an EKG and all is normal, he's suspecting the infections are causing the

elevated heart rate.

The vicodin hasn't been helping her, so he is tapering her off of that and

when we go back in 2 1/2 weeks we will make a determination on what else we

may need to try for the pain.

Her psychiatrist put her on trazadone in an effort for her to gain a full

night of restful sleep (which hasn't happened in many, many months).

The issues with child protective services aren't fully resolved yet, however

the dr let us know today that he will be sending the information that they

requested and he will stand by us that it is the correct treatment for her,

and that both and I are properly controlling her medication.

Hopefully the issues with school will be dealt with in a week or two as we

have our annual IEP meeting.
