It's been since 11/29 when I went off the prednisone, and the big week of testing is here. David and I had the Sacrament of the Sick today from Bishop Joe, and I feel prepared to face the week. Tomorrow is the endoscopy (3 hours), followed by allergy testing on Tuesday (3 hours), and meeting with 3 doctors on Thursday. I hope the results show I'm in remission and can start the food trials. It'll make the 3 long trips back and forth to Northwestern on 3 separate days worth it :) Wednesday and Friday will probably be days of rest, as I still don't have tons on energy on this diet.
Mentally, I'm doing better with the new anti-depression and anti-anxiety meds. My parents have been a huge help to Adam and I the last two weeks; I reacted badly mentally/emotionally when I stopped the meds, just like when I dropped from 30 to 20mg.
I hope to share some good news later this week!
We are hoping that this week goes well for you and that you receive some good news!!!
