Friday night's news - the eosinophils are in the colon

On Friday, I received a call from Dr. Gonsalves stating that while my colonscopy looked clean, the biopsies came back with eosinophils in my colon.  I had had them in my esophogus, stomach, and small bowel before, but not the colon.  The inflammation of the stomach and the new eos in the colon were unexplanable.  Dr. G was going to send the biopsies and ask to have them revisited.  We will get more news on Wednesday.

In the meantime, we meet with the surgeon on Monday and decide next steps on the gallbladder surgery and exploratory surgery.  Please pray that we can resolve this soon.  The eos showing up again has really thrown me for a loop.  With my diet, I don't understand how this could be happening.

I pray a lot, and hope that God guides us to make good choices and hopefully find another specialist that can help me work through this chronic illness.  I'm ready to move on!
