[QUOTE="hamlet, post: 455105, member: 11970"] During my son's cancer treatment I learned a lot about doctors, policies, hospitals, and the rights of children when it comes to tests and specialists. Your son does not have a voice in this process other than you speaking on his behalf. The issue of football practice is next to NOTHING in the psychiatrist's estimation, and she's not putting herself in your son's place to see how important it is to him. psychiatrist is covering her own malpractice issues. If the psychiatrist is so concerned, she might be able to advocate for you to get into see the peds cardio faster or get insurance to approve one that can see you sooner. I'm betting that they find no long qt, but certainly the most conservative approach is to see the specialist and get a definitive opinion. You don't want to mess around with that stuff. I know of a blog written by a woman whose son died of long qt and she shares a lot of the most recent medical research on the subject. If you're interested I can post it for you, (but I don't want to freak you out any more!) [/QUOTE]
