Lesson learned

Isn't it odd how angels enter our lives at times? I bet your heart skipped a beat when he said that to you. Congratulations.

 

 

So saw the brother of the immunologist today. He's also an immunologist in the same office as Allie's. This was so easy! He said he read the report from Dr.L (she recommended 1gm/kg). But, he said, in reviewing the literature, he thinks that 1.5g/kg is the usual in the case of PANDAS. So, that's what he's ordering, over 2 days. I was all ready with my articles and information...didn't need it!

good job! I think you will see a difference at the dosage.

I'm still scared- turning back the pages....there are many pages in this book that I don't want to read again!

This guy wants us to do 2 of them a month apart, then check how its going.

 

I think 2 a month apart is a great idea. I'd be great if there was a study that compared doing 2 a month apart (vs. just one).

It was pretty cool! At first, when I couldn't get her regular immuno, I thought, "oh, no! I'm never going to get somebody to change the dosage on another doctor's patient!" Then, I thought that maybe this was more than a fluke and we were meant to see someone else for a reason. I do believe in divine intervention and trying to let The Almighty steer the way!

Peg- I am so happy for you and Allie. I hope this is the answer for you. It is amazing how some docs make things so easy, and others, well....

I believe Dr. B. is doing all his patients 1.5 mg every two months. He should be doing a study of the results!

I'm assuming- insurance is already approved and paying for the dose she has been getting. What I described above- that's all there was to it....unless her pediatrician called him w/o my knowledge- which is possible- the guy seemed to know more about it than the original treating immuno.
