Update To Our Update

Chris ended up seeing another dr. at the practice he goes to (Dr. D was out yesterday) and he said the pain that Chris has been feeling on the left side is still his liver - even though the pain had always been on the right side (apparently it's a LONG organ). They sent him for bloodwork this morning to see where his numbers are at.

The bloodwork from a few weeks ago came back ok (from what I understand - I wasn't at this appt - his parents went with him) and it may just be that this monthly injection isn't going to work out for him. If that's the case, he may have to go back to the 3x/day injections, or perhaps another "combination" of doseages will work - we'll just have to wait and see.

Things are still up in the air, and will be until we get the bloodwork back and Chris talks to Dr. D again. But it does all appear to be "more of the same" - which of course is far better than having it be something new.

Just keep sending those prayers his way!

Much love and appreciation. Always.
