A moment of clarity


So I had a moment of clarity when I woke up this morning.
For the few months that Phil was feeling well, except for going to the scheduled doctors appointment and the surgery, I made no effort to call and schedule extra appointments. There didn't seem to be a reason to since the treatment plan he was on was working.

Well this week. I don't know what happened differently but if you read my previous blogs, something is gone totally wrong.
This morning I think God spoke to me.
This idea of getting a second opinion was really strong. Not only getting a second opinion from a different GI (although the GI he has now is supposed to be the best one in town). I had a realization that maybe we should visit a neurologist. Maybe the problem isn't actually his inside parts but a neurological issue that's causing all this pain. So my plan this week.
We see pain management on Monday.
Call the family doctor get a referral to both a neurologist and a new GI.

We'll go from there and see where we are at.
He also has to get his blood work done, both for the current GI he is seeing and for the allergy clinic that he goes to.

I absolutely can't believe he is back in this much pain again. He was doing so well.
