医生告诉我,在9月29日的这段时间里要做两项检查。其中一个检查是链球菌,从我和医生的交谈中了解到,第二个检查是新冠病毒。他们说要到第二天早上才能收到新冠病毒检测结果。在我去医院的那天下午,我收到了一名护士发来的语音邮件,说她的RSV检测呈阳性。在我们拜访她的时候,医生从来没有说过任何关于RSV的事情。第二天早上,我给儿科医生办公室打电话,询问是否进行了新冠病毒检测。他们说没有实施过。护士与邓肯医生(我女儿的常规医生)进行了交谈,他说RSV可能会导致她目前的症状(伴有咯吱声和液体的深度咳嗽和高烧),但要继续进行Covid检测。该护士表示,实验室可以使用呼吸道合胞病毒检测的样本进行新冠病毒检测。我们现在正在等待新冠肺炎的结果。 I am angered that this was not performed in the first place as I recall it being communicated to me during my daughter's appointment on Sept. 29, especially when they could have used the sample to run the two tests (COVID and RSV) for which my daughter had symptoms of both. The night of the 29th, my daughters fever spiked to 103.5, which we thought was a mistake but we continued to receive similar temp readings and the twilight clinic confirmed those readings were possible with RSV. It's my understanding that CoViD can result in those readings as well, and if she turns out to have covid, then we need to follow a different path than if she just had RSV on its own. Why did they not test for COVID in the first place along with RSV and strep, at least to rule out one or all of the illnesses?The communication did not align with actions in this case and this is a problem, whether my child ends up having COVID or not.
