We had our first follow up appointment on Tuesday. It was with Ezra’s Neuro Surgeon and I knew on Monday that I should have confirmed the appointment, but I didn’t remember to call. So we left early Tuesday morning hoping we still had an appointment. Of course we get there and the Doctor is in surgery. ugh….. and before we were going to start the 3 hour drive home they said we could just go and get the ultrasound and then page the doctor when it is done so he could look at it. Yay. It wasn’t a waist.
Ezra’s ultrasound looked fine. They are still concerned that the shunt isn’t draining well enough, but it is still working. So we are keeping an eye on it. And of course everything makes me nervous. …was that spit up or would that be considered throw up? …is he fussing because he is tired or because the fluid is putting pressure on his brain?
I cannot wait until Ezra can talk and tell me what is wrong.
To much to think about, but I really am trying not to stress about it. We see the Neuro Surgeon enough that if something was wrong, Ezra will be fine, and they will be able to fix it. No more appointments this week.
Just lazy mornings with the boys.
