Yes...everything is very simply explained. She is getting over the infection. Her strep antibody number went from 880 to 412 but she still has a ways to go. The CRP number also went down a little. I guess this all will just take time but I hate to see her suffer. She can barely get out of bed and this has been going on for 6 months!! She had to drop out of high school because of it. :cry:
I asked the cardiologist about going to a rheumatologist and he was ok with it but thought it wasn't needed. I just want my old Darcy back
(1) See another physician.
(2) Get your daughter back in school. School districts are required to provide the most appropriate instruction for students and that includes sending certified teachers to the homes of ailing students. I cannot imagine why the school district allowed your daughter to drop out. Even if they weren't interested in her as a person, most get some pretty big bucks for every special needs student and they like those bucks.
(3) Don't let them intimidate you. You can look up what the law is and you can get a copy of the district policy book and be ready to quote chapter and verse to whomever you talk. Look up "homebound" instruction. froggyintexas (retired teacher and a school district's worst nightmare when it comes to taking care of kids)
