I'll be praying that it shows what is wrong and that you will have answers on Firday.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for the call!!! It really was so nice to get to know you better. Now I will be able to hear your voice in my head whenever I read any of your posts.

Keep taking care of yourself sweetie. So glad to hear you got firm with Dr Farries office and that you got your appointment relatively quickly.

that STUFF wore off and i ate about two ounces of food, and that watermelon i sucked on while talking to you too, so i think it was a sugar thing, not having anything since night before til late this afternoon was too much with that dye and iodine drink stuff i think - but feeling less weak now and my words come out as words not slurr so that is a good sign too

love you jenbear

Carrie, I'll be thinking about you tomorrow and watching for a post letting us know what the doctor had to say. I sure hope this will give you the answers you need.
