Sometimes I think that we may have a few too many medical issues….
Last week we met with a new paed about Ruby and he went through the list he had summarised from her file. NF1, coeliac disease, late to walk, weak hands, and dust mite allergies.
I had no recollection of her being tested for dust mite allergies. Looking at my blank face he was all, so shall I assume no action has been taken to improve this severe allergy?
Me: I am so sorry – I don’t even remember her being tested. But she has so many tests…
Him: Oh, wait a minute, nope, this isn’t her file.
Me: Really, is there another little girl with the same symptoms as her?
Him: No, most of the file is hers, just not the dust mite allergy bit which was inserted by mistake. Now, did you have any issues to raise?
Me: This sounds ridiculous, but I am concerned about the dark rings under her eyes and her watering eyes. I was wondering about allergies and whether you could run some tests?
