Hard to fathom how she thinks this is nothing.

OP here. If she were under 18, I'd definitely be doing this. Have been a nervous wreck, half dreading, half expecting some kind of emergency for heart or urination thing before Wednesday. She is not the least perturbed, which is maddening, and really thinks she'll be told it's nothing. So why be in a hurry to hear that?


So what happens if you put your daughter in a car and bring her to the ER. Will she freak out? Has she always been like this regarding moods or is this something new? You daughter needs to be evaluate in more ways than one.

Op, she needs a neuro consult too and soon. Ms can cause all of those symptoms, including the heartbeat, chest pain issue.

Not yet, but have collected her from other city as internship was pretty much over anyway.

She sees no reason for alarm as she was in ER 3 weeks ago and they said her blood work was fine. (Her roommate took her there as she had racing heart with chest discomfort, profuse sweating and fainting; ER thought possible electrical problem.)

We are following up with cardiologist here on Wednesday. The cardiologist the ER referred her to did an EKG; nothing showed so he said it must just be anxiety. That seemed inadequate to me, particularly as she had another episode with fainting.

She has agreed to mention urination issue to cardiologist and do whatever he says.

She thinks I have hypochondria by proxy.

These things were much easier when they were under 18 and there were no HIPPA issues.
