Autonomic Crisis, Gavin

Gavin started having chest pain a short while ago. His heart rate was bouncing between 56bpm and about 130bpm. That’s definitely not a good thing.

We have begun making plans to get him to the hospital, should we need to.

We will have to divide and conquer since the E’s are still sick. At the moment, Gavin is resting in bed. We’re really, really hoping he will stabilize after lying down and taking the load off of his heart. The last thing anyone needs right now is another autonomic crisis.

So far its borough his heart rate down and the chest pain has subsided. Hopefully, that will continue to be the case.

Please keep Gavin in your thoughts and prayers again this afternoon .

Thank you

About the author

Lost and Tired

I'm Rob Gorski and I started this blog in January 2010 as a means of sharing my family's real life journey raising 3 boys on the #Autism Spectrum. It's important for people to understand what Autism can really be like and the impact it has on the family. We aren't a TV show and there are no actors. This is our struggle, our journey...and it's all true. I am "Lost and Tired" and this is "My Reality #Autism".

My thoughts are with him.

Poor kid. I can't help but wonder how all these physical medical problems affect his mental instability as well. Hoping you guys pull through alright.
