So we went back to the doctor this week for Madalyns follow up. Her cardiac stress test came back normal so we don't have to worry about her croaking on the basketball court. We do have to worry about her passing out if she locks her knees in band or anything, which is what Neuro-cardiogenic syncope is. It sounds horrible but really is not too bad (unless she smacks her head goin down) and is not treatable so no more meds for her. Which brings me to the next "whatever you want to call it", Maddi has to go back on her ADHD meds but she is underweight which is worrysome because these meds act as an appetite suppressant. She eats like a freakin ELEPHANT!!! How do you make someone like that gain weight??We will basically be feeding her straight fat 24/7. This particular doctors visit was a blast because he also notified us that she was sleep deprived.. Let me put it how he did," she looks exhausted and too thin!" Yea I feel like a rockstar mom!! But I swear she is eating and sleeping!! she turns into a freakin pumpkin around 7 and is asleep by 8 at the latest!!! But he is right both my girls look like refugees!!! So we are on a mission to gain weight and sleep more( the dream of every teenager)
Speaking of Megan, we finally had her IEP and it looks like she will be having her tongue clipped to help out her speech..this should be funn!!! Looks like this will happen over Christmas break, but first we have to bulk her up because she really has no meat to share!!! What a crazy health conundrum we have going on up here!! Thankfully we have not be able to partake of the piggy flu....yet
