We were glad to finally find out what the cause of her severe head pain was from, but now we're so worried because she's out of the hospital and not being treated in any way for the menningitis. She just went to another hospital to see if she can get help.
So sorry to hear about your daughter and I hope she finds help. We took our child back to CHOP where she was admitted. They are giving her the steroids and some painkillers which help immensely. Her Catscan and bloodwork came out well so they are thinking chemical meningitis. I'm glad we brought her to ER because it is awful seeing your child suffer! Right now I'm not sure how long she'll be hospitalized.
