Kbossman1 Posted December 22, 2010 Report Posted December 22, 2010 Well, we've done it before....and now this pediatrician has been kicked to the curb! Good news is that I located a mom ( on facebook, with the pandas support ribbon) and as I was reading some of her postings I realized that she lives in the city about 20 mins from me. She mentioned her son taking Kelflex for PANDAS and that he had been on it since August. I sent her a message and asked who her pediatrician is, and she wrote me back. EVEN better news is that she had no idea about what PANDAS is and this dr is the one who diagnosed her son and put him on the abx. We talked for along time, and both of our kids are a lot alike with symptoms and behavior. Needless to say, I called this office first thing this morning and they said that he could see us Jan 3rd. I explained to the woman who answered that as nice as that was, my daughter is not feeling good and I REALLY want her seen before Christmas if there is any way that they could squeeze her in. The dr's nurse called me back after explaining the situation to him and told us to be there at 12:45 tomorrow!!!!!!! So, I wanted to send a little cheerful update to all who commented with helpful suggestions.....and keep everyone's hopes up for Christmas!
Megs_Mom Posted December 22, 2010 Report Posted December 22, 2010 I love the power of parents networking. Thank heavens for the internet and parents who are so willing to share. Hope it goes really well tomorrow.
