Ky & Liv updates - appt, test results &surgery

What a crazy, busy day! We left for StL at 9am and got home just after 9pm. PHEW!!

Olivia saw the ENT @ Children's. They did another u/s to make sure there was no connected thyroid tissue and also did the TSH blood test. They confirmed what I originally suspected - it IS a thyroglossal duct cyst (same thing Sav had) and they want it out ASAP before it grows and/or becomes infected again. First avail date is this coming Fri. HOWEVER, before she can have surgery she was placed on the 24 hr holter heart monitor again. If they are satisfied with all test results, then surgery is a go on Fri. Because of her heart issues and all, it went from being an outpatient surgery, to an inpatient surgery. Keep those prayers coming!!

We also got Ky's 2nd MRI results from Sat. The neuro was right on with what she thought was going on. Her concussion caused some blockage of her cerebral fluid flow. It's not a TOTAL blockage (which is why the headaches are worse at times, and non-existent at others. She has referred her to a neuro surgeon (we see him this coming Mon) They talked briefly on the ph and surgery and diff meds were discussed. Ped neuro thinks he is going to want to try Topamax first, before we go the surgical route. We'll discuss it all on Mon.

TY all for your never ending love and support.
