Testing, Testing

We had to make a few phone calls to get all the tests set up to be completed before we went to U of M. Tom's allergies to the contrast does not allow him the freedom to be tested anywhere, he must be tested at the hospital. So the next couple of weeks Tom will be busy with the Octreoscan & MRI.

Wednesday, March 4 Tom has his Octreoscan scheduled. He will receive an afternoon nuclear injection and then after a 4 hour wait, he will have his first scan. Thursday morning he will have another scan which is a lengthy process and hopefully they will not need another test a 3rd morning. Wednesday, March 11 Tom has his MRI scheduled and this process will take about an hour to complete.

This will all be forwarded to the U of M for our March 27 consultation with Dr. Prince. I am glad that we were able to move Tom's U of M appointment from April 17 to March 27. It's interesting that the appointment date was changed before we even had this new diagnosis. God is good!

John 17:31-33 "Do you finally believe this?" Jesus asked. "But the time is coming - in fact, it is here - when you will be scattered, each one returning to his own home, leaving me alone. Yet I will not be alone, for the Father is with me. I have told you all this so that you will have peace of heart and mind. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows; but cheer up, for I have overcome the world."
