Hello desperatemom. As a mother myself I can well understand your worries. I think we'd all suffer ten times over than see our children suffer once.

The link Shelley suggested is a good place to start, and there's also our Children's Health Forum : http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum9.html

I also want to suggest that you try the specialists rooms frequently, just incase they get a cancellation before your scheduled appointment. I do hope you your son's pain eases soon.
