an update

On Wednesday I visited the Dr. about my blood work saying that I might have Celiac disease. He is not totally convinced that I have it. I agree since my symptoms have gone away since starting antibiotics for a bladder infection. The Dr. said that same antibiotic is one that they use for some GI problems. He did find it strange that I tested negative for pretty much every problem they tested for, but maybe there was something they missed or something. Weird. If my symptoms return, then he will want to evaluate me further. He didn't have enough suspicion to to put me through an endoscopy and intestinal biopsy. He said he'd rather have to do it at a later time than to do it and find out no. I agree. I'd rather not go through it if I don't have to. So no drastic diet change for me! I'm pretty happy about that. :)

On a lighter note... Micah turns 2 on Sunday. We are sharing his birthday and Mother's day this year. That will be pretty special. We are also leaving to go up North that day! We will stay at a hotel with a water slide on Sunday night, and on Monday we will drive to the Bluefin bay. Both places are right on the shore of Lake Superior. I'm looking forward to relaxing and listening to the sound of the waves crashing on the shore. We will come back on Thursday. It'll be a short trip, but a much needed one for our whole family. Everyone is very excited!
