I am so sorry to hear this. It sure sounds scary. I will say a prayer for Heather, in hopes that this is a fixable thing and for You and the Family, that you have the strength to get through this awful worry.

Thinking of you and yours,

Thank you so much.

Cherie:
You and I didn't get off to the best start, but I do want you to know that I am thinking of you and your lovely family. How utterly frightening. Do you reside in an area with high rates of Lymes?

I wish all of you well.

Chris

Yes. Per capita there are only two areas in the world with higher incidence of LYME than we have. Heather just called me from the hospital to say they'd put the MRI on hold because the Ultrasound lab had had a second reading of liver hemorrhage today after her test and this is a rare finding so the equipment is being tested. Tomorrow morning they will repeat the ultrasound with different equipment and then do the MRI if still indicated.

However the LFT's that were drawn in the hospital this afternoon are even higher than the one drawn in the outpatient lab yesterday. She said the GI doc thinks it may just be a bad virus. Infections disease doc saw her and was of the same opinion.

I am also praying for her health and your heart. I really know this week how hard it is for an RN to be sitting on the sideline with a sick family member. I feel like I have no control.

Cherie I'm very sorry to hear this. Your daughter will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Let's hope it clears soon and doesn't require anything major.

Cherie, I can understand your worry. I hope your daughter will turn out to be all right or at least easily treatable.

Thanks everyone. I will post as soon as there is news.

I'm also sorry to hear this. I hope it becomes and easy "fix" for her and a quick one at that. Tests are tough enough, without the worry! Have the doctors offered any hints of what they think it is? TC of yourself now... stress makes everything worse. (((hugs))) JD
