Update

I thought it might be time for an update to the blog.

I had to return to the doctor today because my pains have become worse and more widespread. As soon as I saw the regular doctor that I have been going to, she called a specialist and sent me right over to them. After talking with him, he came up with two things that he thinks are strong possibilities. I don't want to reveal these on the blog but I will let you know when I get an actual diagnosis. He has done several more blood tests and I should get the results tomorrow. I am also on antibiotics in case there is inflammation or an infection somewhere. If I do not start feeling better by Monday, I have to call back, go back in, and possibly have more invasive tests than the ones I have had.

I have to stay out of school again tomorrow and I am not one that is easily relaxed unless I'm sleeping and I feel bad that I have to be out of school again. I trust the substitutes I have had but they're just not me. I also work with wonderful ladies who are "holding down the fort" for me.

Please keep me in your prayers. Also, pray for Mat. He is such an understanding guy and is really trying to keep me positive and do everything around here. He's getting great at picking up dinner and doing dishes and taking out the trash!

Hopefully I'll have a diagnosis soon. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers!!
