Tuesday Update

John and I met with the Endocrinologist this morning after our lab work and MRI. He also confirmed the diagnosis and doesn't feel the need to adjust the Care Plan that Neurology has designed. He does want to start monitoring bone density due to the steroids and possibly add some Vitamin D for the bone strength. We are also running more tests to check on the pancreas. Since I was pre-diabetic prior to the steroids and insulin dependant on them, they want to predict what will happen down the road.

We then went down to gastro and met a wonderful nurse named Shelly. She told us that there were not any appointments available. She knew that we also were trying to get into urology. She took my cell phone number and sent us on our way. After we left, she went to the back and pulled strings. She called me and said that we now have an appt at 8am tomorrow morning. God is good!

We are still trying to get into the urologist. Unfortunately, they have told me there are only two that can work with my condition. We are going to go sit on stand by and pray that an opening comes free before we leave. Come on prayer warriors!

We spent the evening at a friends farm. We sat on the deck and watched the cattle in the GREEN pasture before enjoying a great dinner. The weather has been in the mid 70s with a cool breeze! Minnesota is showing off its best while we are here.

Lots of love to everyone! We are heading to bed early for another full day. God Bless!
