The CT Scan came back clean. Anya doesn't have a tumor. But she hasn't slopped falling over either. And now it's starting to really make her sad. She won't walk around without holding someone's hand and whines to be picked up all the time. She doesn't want to walk "becasue I'll fall down". Walking to the radiology department, she fell twice. That's when the volunteer that was guiding us asked if we needed a wheelchair.
There's something wrong with Anya. It may be her ears, or a virus, but there IS something wrong.
So we see a Neuorologist tomorrow*. I have no idea what to expect. I have no idea what he'll do or suggest. I'm just waiting to find out. The pediatrician is still suggesting Physical therapy for a gross motor delay. But can you call it a delay when it regressed? And today she came home from day care with a fever. Is it related? I hate this. She's already in bed sleeping for the night now. She screamed when Rob twirled her around a little, and grabbed hold of the rocking chair arms when I rocked her, like she was afraid of falling off. Is she actually getting dizzy now? Is it just her fever? Hopefully we can eventually get some answers to these questions, because we can't keep doing this.
*Tomorrow is also the day that the dog is scheduled to get her butt tumor removed. Shoudl be an interesting day.
poor kid. i'm glad its not a tumor. hope the neurologist can figure it out
