Wtf! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-569159 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 15:25:47 +0000 Grace 569159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd wait to see what the other doctor says first and maybe get their opinion on the other doctor. I'd just hate to be pointing fingers about something I don't fully understand. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-569046 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 14:38:37 +0000 MaisyMay 569046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: @mrskc: My mom has seizures, so he has a family history. He wouldn't even agree to test my nephew until they mentioned that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-569033 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 14:36:15 +0000 blackbird 569033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd seek a third opinion. I do know that you can have a benign Arachnoid cyst (fluid) on the brain that is no big deal (I have one) but seizures are hard to overlook! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-569011 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 14:30:52 +0000 MaisyMay 569011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you ladies. I sent her the link to this post (she knew I was going to post it) and she appreciates your advice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-568573 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 12:07:58 +0000 mrskc 568573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would probably seek a third opinion. How can a doctor say a kid having seizures is fine?! and I agree with @katiew92081: wait to see how things play out with her son's health and then report him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-568562 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 12:04:13 +0000 BelugaBean 568562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katiew92081: I agree with this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-568559 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 12:02:44 +0000 sera_87 568559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would report him to his governing body right away. Who knows how many other kids he's screwing with while your sister figures things out with this second doctor? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-568491 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 11:44:13 +0000 Mrsbells 568491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katiew92081: i agree 100% </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-568487 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 11:41:34 +0000 luckypenny 568487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow that's scary! I'd definitely follow through with a second, even a third, doctor and see what happens. Pursue any negligence or wrong doing after he's okay. Thinking of your family!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-568456 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 11:31:34 +0000 Dandelion 568456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would save the records and document it somehow, but not report it or anything until she pursues the treatment with the second doctor. This way, she knows more about what's going on and can pin point where the first doctor went wrong and what could have happened if she had stuck with him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-would-you-do-20#post-568446 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 11:28:14 +0000 MaisyMay 568446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here's the situation. My nephew is 5 and he had some seizures and had some tests done. There were several serious abnormalities on the tests, but the doctor said that everything was fine. The tests showed a spot on his brain as well as fluid. Bloodwork came back with abnormalities. And his heart was leaking fluid. But the doctor told my sister that all was okay and even wrote that on the files. When she requested copies of his records, he was very reluctant to share them with her.</p> <p>Now a second doctor is telling my sister that these are all indicative of a bigger problem. She is pursuing treatment with the second doctor, but what would you do in regards to the first doctor? Would you report him? To whom? </p>
