NORMAL!
The GI nurse called today and said that Hailey’s biopsies came back normal. (Great news!)
but then she proceeded to say goodbye and hang up the phone on me.
So I asked her if the doctor had any plans to see us again, and she said, “Why do you think he needs to see her again?”
I told her “Because I have a child with a severe feeding aversion who I have to still feed at night to get her to eat, who can’t sleep or nap, who chokes on vomit in her sleep, who is still losing weight, and who refluxes all day and night long, who has Sandifer’s, and who doesn’t seem to be outgrowing it.” So she said, “okay, call the receptionist and book an appointment for 3-4 months from now.” I’m not sure if I laughed out loud or not, but that was basically the response that I was expecting.
Well, needless to say I have no plans to do that. Having a doctor who never speaks to us and who doesn’t consider Hailey’s situation to be at all significant is useless to me… especially when it takes almost 2 hours to get there.
So, we’re off on the GI hunt again. Maybe there’s still a GI doctor left in the city who we haven’t seen. Or maybe I should just cut our losses and try to manage things ourselves. I’m not sure which one is the best for Hailey.
