Better-ish?

After our unhelpful trip to the ER in which they ran no tests other than strength tests (asking #4 to push or pull against the doctors’ hands) and the subsequent consensus that she didn’t need physical help but a psychiatrist, we came home to regroup and figure out what our next step was to be.

Thank you to all of you for your help in brainstorming this. We have a list of things to try. (She’s negative for Lyme disease, btw.) We’re blessed to have a doctor who is open to suggestions, is willing to listen to wild theories, and finds it hilarious that I would crowd source this whole thing. Unfortunately, we have very little to go on as every test has come back normal except that her Vitamin D level is slightly low. With nothing to go on, we are holding on until next week to see where we are after the weekend.

So here’s the new info:

After two days of resting and taking it easy, she’s both bored and feeling better-ish. That’s her description not mine. She woke up this morning a bit more steady on her feet and less wobbly. She spent the day pushing too hard, because she is just a 9 year old girl after all, and playing too much and is shaky again this evening. I have no idea if it’s the rest, the time, or the paleo diet she’s on, but she was stronger this morning….so that’s hopeful. Right?

That’s where we are tonight. I’ll update you tomorrow.

Thanks for your prayers and good wishes. God bless you all.
