    So my little girl is not getting better. 

    I took her to the doctor Friday.  They did strep and urine test.  Sent both to lab.  They said lab would call if they found anything. 

    She is miserable all weekend.  I stayed home to be with her during a wedding Saturday and then we canceled her birthday party Sunday.  . . She turned 4.

    I call doctor today to see if we can get in and if they have the results for the tests.  They schedule her for the morning to do another urine test because the lab shows they never received urine test.  

    My wife doesn't want to wait any longer.  She takes her to urgent care.  Within an hour they say something is wrong with urine test and send her to ER. 

    This doctor racket is a bunch of BS.


    @kl8ton praying your little one gets better.  I always hate when mine are sick and there's hardly no way to help them.

    After all that.  They said she has UTI. At doctors office right now with her. I find it hard to believe it took a doc visit, urgent care visit and ER visit to diagnose UTI. 

    I appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers!

    For those interested, I have just been made aware that today is "International Talk Like a Pirate Day."  
    Here's a Q related phrase:  "Cleave him to the brisket – to cut across the chest, from one shoulder to the lower abdomen."

    Surely with your previous career, talk like a pirate day is every day?

    @kl8ton glad you caught it when you did. Those, if untreated, can be horrible. Hoping for a very quick recovery, and she gets back to bossing you around.

    Glad it turned out to be something relatively minor.  I had almost the identical situation with my daughter, with the same outcome. 

    I think the ER and all the tests freak out the parents as much as the kid.

    Is it a problem if my surgeon said almost this exact thing?

    Your dome didn't fall off and crack after you just re-assembled did it?  I am hoping that is a base with a hairline crack that you filed a warranty claim on.

    Nice fire!

    It's the old base. I'm not devastated.

    The egg base is about 3/4 of coals/ash now. The exterior temp ranges from 327-454F near the bottom of the base and 540-603F near the top. Not too shabby.
