Here is her story. Sorry it is long. Also adding she is 6 today.
Ok. Olivia has had a headacheoff and on for two weeks. She is very lethargic, not eating. I have hadto pick her up from school more than once because of her headaches. Soyesterday I took her to a dr after having to pick her up. He said shemay have a sinus infection. Today, the teacher calls and says thatOlivia isnt herself. She is violent, screaming at the top of her lungsand throwing things at the other students. This raises a huge red flag.To me, my child has something wrong. She has had some serious symptoms.I take her to her regular dr. He does a normal physical exam and saysthere isnt anything wrong with her. I want bloodwork and a head CT. Ofcourse a regular exam isnt going to show if something is wrong in herhead. I dont expect a virus to make her have altered mental status. Iwant him to find out what is causing her to sleep all day, haveheadaches, not eat, and now become violent. I managed to get somebloodwork out of him. We go tomorrow first thing in the morning. Shewill be fasting. Does this sound normal at all to you? I am distraughtover worrying about her. Olivia is a bubbling, hyper, caring littlegirl. Not what she is like now.
