So we now know what is going on....
When I picked up Princess Seriously from school yesterday she was in tears and telling me she was hurting and really bad. It was worse then ever. I went into total Mama Bear mode. I also freaked.
I called HER doctor and he was gone for the day. His nurse said come here and tonight there is a pediatrician in Urgent Care. (There is an urgent care near our home, I went to the next town over which is the main Urgent Care for our group) So off we went.
I really liked this doctor. He totally listened to her. He was concerned that she was having an appendicitis attack. No symptoms. He wanted to know about her and what she was doing, the swimming, what new things that she was doing in swimming. What was she doing in PE the whole NINE yards. He had throughly examined her. He had her doing sit ups, jumping up and down, then he said the other doctor she saw was full of crap, she was not having stomach viral issues, she had pulled a stomach muscle and badly. The poor kid. So the other doctor did everything wrong wrong wrong. He prescribed heat, ben gay and motrin. No swim for a week and then she could slowly ease herself back in.
I am at peace with this and so is PSS. I was freaking out and not comfortable with how things were left at the last doctor trip. This time I feel like we have control over thing and he showed me how her muscle tensed and everything.
I am sure this is the first of many sports injuries to come for her.
