Default How is your son doing?

I only saw this post yesterday and was wondering if you can give us an update since he is done with his antibiotics? No pressure if you're not ready.

I hope he has smooth sailing from here on out. We are here to support you.

Next step is to have him swallow a capsule camera, (to take pictures of the entire length of the small intestine). And an MRI of the intestines to detect any other abnormalities.

At least this happened early in the year. Although the bills haven't hit yet, I'm assuming we are well beyond our out of pocket max - so any other tests or treatments he receives should be 100% covered.
