EKG update

First thing this morning I called the doctor to find out about the test results and of course she was with a patient so she had to call me back. Uggg!! So after 4 long hours of waiting I missed her call!! Uggg again!! Thankfully she left me a message that said she would fax me his results and that she wanted me to take him to see a Pediatric Cardiologist. She said his EKG came back abnormal. He has a possible Left Ventricular Hypertrophy. (A little scary) So I called the Cardiologist that read the EKG at St Joe’s and made an appointment. His appointment is scheduled for March 3rd so I will keep you posted.

Bryson's EKG....

Today was Bryson's EKG...
We went to St. Joe's Hospital today around 11:30 and didn't leave until about 2!! We started out in admitting then waiting room after waiting room. Finally we were taken into this small room where they did the test that took all of....maybe...I don't know...15 sec!! All that and it only took 15 sec!! Oh my...
So...hopefully we will have the results tomorrow or the next day. I'll keep you posted.

Dealing with ADHD

ADHD is a medical condition that affects how well someone can sit still, focus, and pay attention. People with ADHD have differences in the parts of their brains that control attention and activity. This means that they may have trouble focusing on certain tasks and subjects, or they may seem "wired," act impulsively, and get into trouble.

If any of you know my little boy then you know the definition above describes him to a T!! We've been dealing with this for about 2 years. Finally after going through 4 day cares and many trips to the doctor we finally got the diagnose we have been waiting for. We've been contemplating over medication to help him for a long time and have finally decided that this may be the only option we have left. We've tried changing his diet, counseling, sports activities to keep him busy, you name and we've tried it.

So....long story short he starts his medication tomorrow. Wish me luck! Oh and if you have any advise please send it my way!

Thanks!
