The bloodwork results were already back when we got there this morning. Everything's good on that - no Addison's. All potassium, sodium, liver enzymes, etc. were well within the normal ranges. Her hydration is good. Dr. Haynes ran another ECG this morning and said her heartrate is up closer to normal but not really where he wants it to be. Also, it's now skipping several beats and he's concerned about that.
He wants to run another ECG in a few days and then we'll probably be referred to a Cardiologist. I'm assuming that the cardiologist will do the ultrasound and whatever additional testing Chelsea needs, if she even needs it. Dr. Haynes wasn't as forthcoming this morning about what might be going on now that Addison's has been ruled out. He said let's just wait and see what the next few days brings.
Chelsea is acting better this morning so I'm trying to stay positive. I just don't know what to think. Yesterday I googled so many possibilities that I scared myself stupid - and I still don't know what's wrong with her.
Thank you all for all the prayers! Please continue to pray for my little girl. I know that modern medicine can work miracles, but she's so young still. She really has me worried. I just want her to be well.
Hugs,

Bonny -- Been praying for Chelsea and hoping you are seeing continued improvement today. I can only imagine how frightening this must be. I bet it did her a world of good to bring her home and let her feel safe with you.
Get better soon little Chelsea!
