why

[WonderTastic]

I really want to do sports but the doctor wouldn't sign my physical. She said because something is wrong with my heart but she doesn't know the true problem. It's freaking me out but I really wanted to do sports this year. Do any of you know if I'll be ever to play sports and have you had this problem lol.
Sorry if wording sucks

What your doctor should do is referr you to a cardiologist so she can actually know what is wrong with your heart and then you will be able to get a difinitive answer from her as to why you cannot play sports. Talk to your doctor and since she deems you unable to play sports than you cannot play sports. Plain as that. Sorry.

This is probably just a precaution, has your doc refered you to the hospital for any tests? I wouldn't worry about it too much, as I said its probably just a precaution,.

First, I love your picture haha and second on subject, like Dimitri said before, get reffered to a cardioligist (spelling?) to find out what the true problem is. I wouldn't rule out your chances of playing sports because no one knows the specific reason to your heart problem at this time, for all you know its someting so simple a pill could fix it. Right now I wouldn't stress on it because like I said, nobody at this time knows what it is.

She said she'll call for us to go to the cardiologist but she hasn.,t and that was months ago

[Dimitri]

I dont know where you live but I beleive that you can make your own appointments even at you age.

sometimes with insurance, there has to be a referral. the referral might be taking longer than planned. you can always have your parents call and ask what's going on.

Yes, this is what I would do and yes I forget about insurance plans, they are a pain in the ass.

I would go to a pediatric cardiologist rather than a regular cardiologist because teens/children and adults can have diseases/disorders/problems the other cant. and your pediatrician/doctor should have referred you to a cardiologist right away anyways if she knew something was wrong. if she didnt she wasnt doing her job.

don't be so fast to judge the doctor. she may have and insurance is taking their sweet time getting the referral processed. i have that problem with referrals all the time. i needed an mri for my head, it was serious, and the referral took 6 months! even though my doctor ordered it the day of my appointment. my doctor did their job and did it well, the insurance was the one dropping the ball.

Well insurance can kiss my .. you get the point LOL

i do. part of life is being responsible, which means if we are really concerned, we call and find out what in the world is going on with the referral or why there's a hold up. if there is a heart problem involved, i'd be blaming the parents at this point for not fighting for the proper health care. or maybe, the parents know more about the situation and it's been decided no testing is needed at this time, but sports are still out of the question.
