So i went to the dr this morning, to see what is going on with my crazy body. We talked through a lot of my questions and they ran some tests on me. She tested my lungs and found out that i am not getting enough oxygen, and my inhaler isn't working for me. So she gave me a new inhaler, and we are trying a new allergy medicine. Hopefully, if all that works the way it should - that should help out with my fatigue that i have been feeling... In reference to the parvo: she was surprised that i was still feeling pain, and that i was feeling it as badly as i am. She said most cases dont last this long. There is a small percentage that it could last a long time, but apparently its a real small percentage. SO- they took 4 1/2 tubes of my blood, again. And are re-testing it for parvo. She said they can actually see if the parvo has gone up or down. If its gone up, then there is the possibilities of me seeing another dr, or getting a blood transfusion, or something of that sort. If it has gone down, that means that the pain i am feeling in my knees and ankles has nothing to do with the parvo, in which case i have to go see a rhumatologist (sp???) or more simply put, some one who knows more about joints. So, pretty much thats where we left off. In the mean time she gave me some high quality pain killer, which i am really excited about. Yesterday the pain was so bad it got me crying.. so i am looking forward to some pain free days. We will see how it works out. Anyways - i hear back about the blood test on Monday, so i will let you know how all that goes.
