Scott is in the Hospital

Scott was sent to the hospital by his doctor today for some tests. He ended up being admitted several hours later. All we've determined at this point after numerous tests and examination by assorted different doctors and three nurses is that 16 year olds and their parents get easily agitated after watching the same physical examination performed and the same questions asked over and over.....don't these folks share their notes??

There was a minor abnormality on his cat scan but the consensus is this is not causing his issue.

Anyway, he has more tests and specialists and a neurologist seeing him tomorrow.

I am very distressed! The house is empty and lonely and I doubt sleep will come easy this morning.

Dear Chris - I am so sorry. I can only imagine your horror. Waiting & wondering. Have you tried passing tortuous hours scouring the internet for any clue? We've handled our own investigations before fully trusting doctors.

I know all the hospital staff asking same questions is frustrating but I think they might do this hoping another clue will surface (or they can't read or write).

Please know we will be thinking of you and wish a speedy recovery for Scott.

Hugs from PA.

Thanks for your kind words Beth

Scott's lack of other symptoms make research fruitless; everything points to other symptoms being present.....

Other than being tired I am handling things OK for the most part.

I'll post anything new that happens today.
