Re: Bad Neurosurgeon Follow Up Appt.

[Guest guest]

Dina,

Wow - I'm so sorry to hear that the neuro appt didn't go so well. had a

CT scan and an appt with a opthamologist prior to receiving her helmet. Both

were precautionary measures and no unusual results were found. I will hope

that the same will apply for your . The sedation was not nearly as bad

as I thought it would be. was approx the same age as is when she

had her scan. We showed up early that morning (she also had food

restrictions), they gave us a really bitter orange liquid for her to drink

and she fell asleep in my arms. They took her into the scan room and 5

minutes later it was over. They brought her into " recovery " and gave her

oxygen which brought her out of the " sleep " . She was groggy for a good part

of the day and slept a lot, but after that she was totally back to normal

with no side effects. It ended up that the anticipation was far worse then

the actual event!

Please let us know how things progress and in the meanwhile you and

will be in my thoughts.
