Aaron just got a call this morning from our Doctors office with some good news... Aaron most likely does not have NMO after all. We don't know exactly what the mistake was, but they are saying his first blood test was + with NMO, but this next one wasn't. So they're still a little confused, and so are we, but it most likely isn't NMO since he really does not have any other symptoms or tests that show positive for it other than his first blood test. We are so relieved. NMO made MS seem like a breeze. So hopefully we are back in the breeze zone. We meet with the Specialist Aug. 19 to go over everything and talk about why Aaron is still struggling and feeling so yucky! At least the darkest cloud that has loomed is gone and we can breath a sigh of some relief.
Unfortunately, Aaron had to spend his b-day weekend in the hospital getting infusions...
Not a very fun way to spend a birthday!
We are hoping this will help with his latest MS symptoms and that he can get back to normal.
He's had a few side effects that have worried me, but it's so hard to know where it is all coming from... the new drug, the MS or the infusions side effects. Here's hoping he will find some answers in the next few weeks and we can finally be honest when we say we are doing good!
After this past week though and the fear that came over us with the NMO lingering over our heads, we are feeling so blessed and so relieved. Thank you to those who have supported us through this all and have fasted and prayed. I truly feel like again we just witnessed another amazing miracle from the Lord.
We will keep you posted after we meet with the doctor and learn a little more about what truly is going on!
Thanks again for everything!
Love The Meachams
