Update from the appointment today

Well Emma's appointment today didn't go quite like I was expecting. He switched her to a different allergy medicine that she will be taking daily and some more meds to take as needed when her "asthma" flares up. He also said for right now he doesn't want to put her through anymore testing for a couple of months to give her body a break. I know she needs a break but I just want some answers. I'm just torn on this right now..It's been a long 4 and a half years of not having any answers and I'm so tired of her being sick all the time and no one being able to tell me why. :/ So, now I wonder if I find another doctor on my own or just wait it out and see what happens? Right now we both just need a break so who knows. I will update this more later and I think I'm going to go back to making this just a personal blog which will be about mine and her lives..medical issues and personal issues. Any suggestions or ideas on that? On another note, everyone please say a prayer for a classmate of Emma's that was bitten by a snake today while at the rec park playing ball...not sure what the status is on him but I do know they didn't have to life flight him out and he was at SGMC being treated. Please just keep him and his family in your prayers. Thanks!

  1. bless your heart!!! i can only imagine how difficult it is. SOMETIMES, as mommies, we have to tell the doctors what to do. When Braydon was 1 he was sent home FOUR times in one day due to something that I KNEW was MRSA, just based on research that I did from home. I finally had to raise hell and TELL the doctor to test for it, and they reluctantly agreed. He was in the hospital for DAYS and it can be potentially fatal. Doctors don't always know best. And, as mommies, I know that this is extremely difficult. We just want answers to help our babies. I will keep you all in my prayers. xoxo new friend!!

  2. Thanks Kayla! And we know all too well about MRSA...Emma had it 9x and had surgery 2x because of it. :( I just think we just need to focus on ourselves for a bit and go with the flow for a month or so and see how her body adjusts. Hopefully something comes up to give us more answers.

  3. Well i had this long comment wrote out but my phone decided to go crazy and delete it...but just to remember to keep you head up and continue to do research because you know Emma better than anyone including the doctors. Always remember God has a plan for all of this even though it might not seem like it now but keep your prayers going! If you ever need anything or just someone to talk to I'm just a phone call away! I might not be good at advice but i can listen all day long! I love y'all and keep us posted!
