I packed an essential bag. I'm going someplace today! Question is where. I'm refusing to wait one more night. I lost enough sleep and food over this.

Does your daughter have fever today? Is it going down?

There's sitting called D-mannose. It tastes good and you mix it with water. You can give it to your daughter starting now. I have used it for myself. You can do that in addition to whatever what you are doing and when the UTI is clear you can use this as a prevention for a while, giving her just one dose a day.

Yes to fever. Not going down. That's why I'm nervous.

Just spoke to Judy Fisher. She gave 2 options. 1 option is to go to Columbia. She said they'll take me very seriously and I won't wait long. Going in a few min.

To call my dr and demand all these tests outpatient. She says though she personally would give the dr the 2 options. But if I want answera right away then I should do Columbia. I told her I slept a total of 4 hours this week. I need answers today.

I might suggest that you bring along any records you can get from your doctor's office.

Na. I'm not waiting for that. It's a matter of another 3-4 hours at least. I'm on my way already.

If they keep you waiting long in the waiting room, call back Judy Fischer, she may be able to have them take you in faster.

Hatzlocha ! Hope you get answers …. Just be prepared that there is a possibility they’ll run some simple tests and if everything checks out tell you to follow up with a specialist …. Unless a real red flag comes up in initial tests hospitals don’t generally run extensive testing upon a ER visit . You are usually dealing with residents who are looking out for serious obvious flags and they’ll miss the hard to diagnose ones . Unfortunately even with serious illnesses it can take a while to get a proper diagnosis .

While I have no idea what results will bring I'm prepared for anything at this point as long as I get to the bottom of this. Interestingly , I'm already so much calmer.
But I just spoke to dh. I feel like crying. He's upset why I don't trust my dr. Can you explain to him mother's intuition??? He doesn't get it!!

She said that they'll take a sono and extensive bloodwork based on what's going on. That's really the most important to start.
