Name This Tune

So the fine folks at Lenox Hill Radiology Group decided to leave their office at 8 pm last night without reading Eliza's chest x-ray which was taken at 2:30. Despite the receptionist paging 4 different radiologists none of them deigned to read Eliza's x-ray on their day off.

Eliza has now been prescribed:

dexamethasone, 2 injections

Xyrtec
Pulmocort
Albuterol (ooooh! 2 types, liquid and nebulizer!)

All with no result.

  2. No ideas here. If you lived near where we do, I'd suggest they run a valley fever blood test. Of course, if they'd read the chest x-ray that would tell you too!

    Curses on those people!


    Hugs, Blessings & Prayers!
