Tests/ investigations

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for asking

First of all, in my opinion, you should start with blood tests to check the WBC, HCT, HB. Also, she should have electrolytes balance, creatinine, azotemia.

After those exams, your doctor will decide for further examination or treatment

Please keep me updated about the results

I will respect your opinion, but as you understand, I didn’t see your daughter either, to have the exact decision.

I hope that everything is going to be ok without problems for your daughter.

For your information a blood test doesn’t reveal everything that might be happening in one’s body. There are other test that can be ran to weed out things. Other test results might indicate things moving in a different direction. We went to see a real Doctor Who was also concerned about the number of symptoms once she questioned y daughter. She ordered a chest x-ray and an EKG and a 24 hour urine catch specimen and a fasting blood test. So that’s where were at right now and pending those results will move forward with other things because there are way too many symptoms ignore and brush off like you wanted to. I hope if you have children (Lord for bid they ever have health problems) a doctor never blows them/ you off like you have us and basically suggest they are making things up in their head!

Oh and... I’m pretty sure you can’t think your face into swelling up or breaking into a all over body sweat by just sitting in a chair.
