Title: Second time around(update 3/14/11)
Post by: stringstretcher on February 19, 2011, 07:56:00 PM
Got a call the other day from my Doctor, and they found some things in my last blood work they did not like.  I have a appointment set up for this coming Thursday to discuss what was found and what is going to be done.

I do know that they also set up another MRE Or MRG, which ever one it is that looks at the blood flow in the brain.

Having had to call the doctors due to an severe increase in my dizziness and falling, please say a prayer for me.  Right now, it does not sound or look good that they are looking at specifics, but maybe it can also be a blessing, just have to wait and see.

Found out yesterday, that they are scheduling me a MRI and a MRA on March 9th.  Based on what I have been told so far, they are looking for aneurysms in the blood vessels in or too my brain.  Some where there, what they are thinking, is a blockage robbing my brain of oxygen.  

The last week and a half, has been the worst so far, with lots of medications and bed time. Not getting the things done I want to, or should say like to is driving me nuts,(already crazy) so have to go with something else.

Just hope they find something fixable as this battle is one I would love to have over with.

Thanks again for all the prayers and concerns, and with his help, things will get better.

Charlie,

I know it sound condescending to say I'm encouraged, but by golly, if it IS some small vessle blockage, I'd think they can do wonders for that and get you some better results!

I know you want to get off this roller-coaster and back to work and living life!

I'm with you and we're all praying and pulling for you, brother.

Keep the Son in your eyes!

Thanks again so much everyone for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers.  I hope you know that each and everyone of you are in mine as well

After a week of on again, off again, they finally got it settled with my insurance to have the MRI and MRA done, just not sure yet how much it will leave me to pay, but I would rather pay and know, than not pay and keep wondering.

Let's just hope that if they do find something, it is of a nature that can be controlled or abolished.  I think the hardest part of any illness or disease is knowing there is something wrong, but not knowing what is causing it.

I know what ever is meant to be will be, but please pray with me that after this, it will be healing time.

Well at 3:00PM tomorrow will probably be a very big deciding factor in my way of life as it is.  I can only hope that the result are negative or if there is something found, it can be treated.  It's been a long time coming just to get some answers, but I am ready.  I thank each and everyone of you for your support, prayers, and thoughts.  Not sure when the results will be made, so I guess it's just a waiting game after tomorrow.  Thanks again everyone

Well I was going to call this week to see if I could get in and get the results before my April 22nd appointment, but they beat me to it.  They called and said the MRA/MRI results were back and the doctor(s) want to see me before that date   :scared:   I am sure that means that they found something that needs addressing, but what? I think it will be a long long 18 days.   :pray:      :pray:      :pray:

Charlie,

Brother, don't even go there! Don't you DARE start thinking negative stuff.

With HIPPA, they can't breathe a word of anything via telephone even if they are positive they're talking to YOU!

This could be the bestest news you've had since this crud started, just as easily as it could be something of a challenge.

We've all prayed they'd find something  "treatable" instead of this mystery malaise, so let's keep the focus, buddy!

This is going to be GREAT news! They've found something and they want to treat it ASAP and get you on the road to recovery and a fuller life!

OK!?!

Love ya brother. We're going to be like two clappers in a bell bumpin off each other at B'more laughin and enjoying our renewed (if not somewhat subdued)(cause it will be a short time from now) changed lease on life together.

I'm excited for you! Besides, fretting does nothing but robs you of joy and energy. It's in HIS hands!

Keep the Son in your eyes!

Still praying Charlie! Doc is right. We prayed to find a means to an end of your situation and it sounds like the prayer has been answered. Just one step at a time on the road to recovery. Keep the Faith! It's in God's hands.

Still praying for God's best and keep this in mind if it is something serious they would get you in asap but 18 days says to me the chances of coming out of that meeting with a smile are very high. Praising and praying for His best!
