Heart Testing
So I should begin by telling you that Kelsey has been randomly passing out on us. She becomes completely apneic and lifeless. She started this a year ago but they have been few and far between until recently. We had an EEG done a month ago that came back normal, yet the doctor is still thinking seizures. I personally think it could be something cardiac related because of how quickly she turns blue and loses consciousness, not to mention how long it takes to get her back. I finally convinced the pediatrician that this was not just behavioral and she was NOT holding her breath...several episodes and rescue breaths later (thank God we know CPR). She has a cardiac echo scheduled for today and we'll see where we go from there. The pediatrician also referred her to a neurologist at Riley but she doesn't go until November. Pray that we at least get some result from all this and maybe some piece of mind.
