Time for a new doctor. Its not typical for 8 year olds to get heart palpitations
Age: 8Height/weight: Average, not sure exactly but last i was told, she's within normal rangeFemaleCaucasian/ HispanicNo previous medical history, no prior surgeriesnon-smoking householdWe all had covid in December 26th. It was rough but we all recovered. Me and my husband were vaccinated. My kids weren't because their clinic wasn't providing the vaccines yet.I'm going to try to be thorough as possible because it's just so much going on with her and i don't know where to start and her symptoms are all over the place... Last summer she was in someone's house that had a rabbit. The rabbit was filthy and it scratched the top part of her hand. Her hand began looking infected because even though i washed it and put neosporin on it, kids are kids and she couldn't keep it clean and soon it began looking red. She got a fever roughly around that time and was complaining of headaches and that her "throat feels tight". I took her to her clinic and they drew blood to test her for "rabbit scratch fever" It came back negative..They figured she just caught a virus and nothing became of it. The scratch eventually healed with an ointment they gave her. That same summer she..again...being a kid, didn't listen to me and was rolling in grass in her grandmother's yard which we have found ticks in. She ended up with a tick in her head which by the time we noticed it amongst her hair was engorged. I pried it off her. My daughter again, began complaining of headaches and her body hurting, "tight" throat. I took her to the ER and had her get tested for lyme disease it came back negative..It's now almost a year later and her headaches "tight throat" and body pain just come and go sporadically. I would chalk it up to growing pains which is what everyone was telling me. Her doctor never seems concerned...But sometimes the headaches are so intense she will cry and lay down and ask for a cold towel for her head...she's 8. And now on top of it all she's got new symptoms. She came to me about a week ago saying her butt felt weird like it had "dots". I tell her to show me and all over her butt and upper thigh area she is covered in what look to be pimples. Its so odd. My mind automatically went to "bed bugs!" So i checked the beds from top to bottom but found nothing. She still has trouble sleeping some nights and comes to sleep on our bed so if it was bed bugs why is she the only one with the dots? I'm checking her daily and it's as if she's got a new "pimple" everyday...again, she's 8...wth..Another new symptom she has is she's been getting heart palpitations. One minute she's playing on the floor or on the sofa, and the next she will come to me saying her heart is beating rapidly. I put my head on her heart and i feel her heart beating quickly. It scares her and i have to scoop her up and hold her for a while. She has also started hypervenilating when she's upset. Something she's NEVER done in her life. We aren't strict with her and she's a happy child, why would she start doing that? She says she can't help it.I took her to her doctor roughly two-three weeks ago because i had enough, i told her doctor everything from the summer to now. From the body pain to the heart pain and showed him her butt pimples and asked him to please help because we are at our wits end. He checked her out and said her heart sounds fine to him. He also was dismissive towards her skin problem. He did however notice the lymph nodes around her neck were really swollen. He ordered her to get blood work done and it came back last week. She has covid anti-bodies in her blood. She tested negative again for lyme (im guessing he just wanted to double check in case the other one was a false negative) and showed what he thinks might be her in "Recovering" state of cat scratch fever? ...ok? We have cats so i guess that's possible. He sounded so unsure with himself. Sighing a lot and kept going "eh...i don't really know what to tell you..." and stumped with her blood work. He sent her a prescription for Azithromycin just to be safe. She has to take this every day after dinner.Thing is, she's still complaining about her various symptoms. And it's been days since she got the medicine and now she's more frequently telling me her hearts beating quickly. So im afraid to continue giving her the medicine in case that's whats causing the palpitations. I have sent various messages to her doctor two days ago but he isn't calling me back. I'm tired of waiting for him and already went ahead and made her an appointment for both pediatric cardiology and dermatology. I also found a new pediatrician because i've had it with this guy. Both appointments are next week. But until then i'm just a bundle of nerves. I hate when she comes to me saying her heart hurts or her head hurts. Can anyone here please tell me whats wrong with my baby girl?Edit: were at the ER now. She started complaining of heart pain and palpitations and Im done waiting. Will update depending on what they say
