Tests Approved

Joe's MRI has finally been approved.  His tests will be Jan 31st and we will get the results on Feb 5th.  For some reason his bowels are even worse than normal and his shoulder joints are also more painful than normal.  Neither Dr. S or Dr. Ong understand why.  The increase in the meds was tough on Joe's stomach, so he had to back down from the dosage (still more than he was taking), but regardless, there's been no improvement.  Hopefully with time, things will start working.  He just adjusts his "new normal" around his "new bowel system". 

We are planning some exciting things this year.  We are going to try a couple trips, have company from family, high school and college friends visit and we stay busy with Dr. appointments, organizing life, playing with grandkids, visiting with company and getting out occasionally.  We have no complaints and are just grateful for the ongoing support and prayers from all of you.  I will post again as soon as we get the test results back.  XOXO to all, Sherrie
