After Daniel was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection last month, we gave him the prescribed antibiotics, and he recovered from the UTI before we flew out to the States (thankfully).Since then, however, he has continued to complain of back pain. It seemed worse than ever this past weekend when he and Rebekah got a stomach bug. We had been planning to wait until we got back to India before investigating his situation further, but finally decided it might be wiser to go ahead and see someone here since it's not getting any better - if anything, it's getting worse.
So today was back to the pediatrician. He recommended another urine test and a blood test. Both of those came back normal, which is good except that means we still don't know what the problem is. The pediatrician has him scheduled to see another orthopedist and another urologist next week.
Poor Daniel is becoming vary wary of doctors. He used to love going to the doctor, but I think he's changed his mind after so many tests. He gets this look in his eye like "Uh, oh, what are they going to do to me now?" We are praying that this next set of doctors visits will help us find out what the problem is so we can get it taken care of.
