MRI

Well, things didn't quite go as we thought with Aaron's last dose of sole medrol. We had hoped it would stop his symptoms and he'd be feeling better by now. But, unfortunately it hasn't. The numbness and pain are still there and have travelled further down into his foot. He is says it isn't too painful, just irritating and frustrating. Aaron called the Dr. office Wednesday to see what this means. They weren't for certain, but are guessing he is having an actual relapse of MS. The only way to know for certain is to have his MRI a little early. If it is an actual relapse, then this might mean a No go on the medication and a start all over of something new. Bummer. Not the news we want to hear. It's frustrating because he had 9 months of really good health. To see that decline and the reality that this disease will truly never go away is hard. But, we can't get down yet. We really just need to see the MRI results and then go from there. Once those are in, I'll hopefully be able to tell you more. WE are glad he's getting the MRI earlier due to insurance and upcoming events in life. I hope it gives us the answers we need too.
