Amy Sampsel: We ended up getting admitted to NTU. We couldn’t see a neurologist in the ER and I said we needed help. They have talked to one now and I think we will see one tomorrow. The doctor here today said that they’ve tried everything and do not really have anything new to offer. I said that I need someone to “think outside the box” and that I do not think this is a migraine. They were looking for a clot on the CT but didn’t find anything. They said we will be seeing rehab doctors and psych also along with the medical team. I told them she has a psychologist and they can talk to her.

Sunday (11/22) Update: We just saw the neurology doctor here today. They really feel that they cannot do anything more besides Toradal and Compazine. I asked to see if they can get a neuro surgeon to consult. They said they will ask. Also, they will have neuro radiology look at her disks tomorrow. I’m pretty sure they will send us home tomorrow. They have nothing to offer us. They said she will probably need to leave Utah if we want more specialized “out of the box.”  They said that we will probably have to find an adult doctor that will take her on at the age of 15 years.
