What is happening now...
Today I saw a surgeon and for the third time it sounds like I am not going to qualify for exploratory surgery. Because all of my labs are normal, this is pretty much one of the few other options I have remaining to discover what is wrong with me. The Surgeon was very kind, but his exact words were, "well you just aren't behaving normally to fit any criteria for a case." Meaning I have no idea what is wrong with you.
He ordered a couple more tests, which I have already done. But I will do them again because it is what he asked of me. One of which includes a timelaps Xray, which they have not done for me yet.The part that worries me is that he seemed to be grabbing at straws. The conditions he suggested were things that few people, less than 2% of the population have, and they didn't seem to fit my symptoms at all. It is difficult to leave feeling confident in the doctor when they are proposing ideas that are slim to no chance of being correct speculations. Especially when he was taking only specific symptoms into consideration and leaving out all the rest. I may be wrong in thinking this, but I would assume that all my symptoms are just as important as another. But he is certainly the doctor.
The next big day to be praying for is January 9th when I will be getting a long awaited MRI that will hopefully show the damaged or torn muscle that is causing all of this craziness. So please direct all of your prayers to that day and I will be sure to let you know what happens and what they find. Thanks to all of you once again for being a part of this. I cannot tell you how helpful and encouraging it is.
