Ok well since I haven't posted anything about the health issuse. Most of you have heard about already from my MySpace of FACEBOOK. I will start from the beginging for those who don't know what going on.
THE BEGINNING!!! :)
On 9/17/08 I had a reagular eye appt. The Dr took picture of the back of my eye and noticed that my optic nerve was swollen. Which, to back track a little, they found it to be swollen when I was about 7 months pregnant with Ally. My vision went cloudy for a day, which promped them to look. So after that appt., noticing that it was still swollen. the Dr. told me that it could be caused by a brain tumor or excess fluid in the brain, both putting pressure on the nerve. SO he refered me to a Neurologist.
On 9/24/08 I have my consult with Dr. Martino. I check a bunch of, what I would call silly things. But said that since I don't really have any side effect that everything was probably fine but because of my family back ground it would be best to do an MRI and MRV. If that came back fine another thing that they have found that could cause it is, I hate to admit it, but its weight. More specifically around the abdomin, which of coarse come when you are pregnant, so thats why the problem usually spikes then. So I may need to go on a diet, be there done that, not that painful. :)
On 9/30/08 I had my MRI and MRV (were they inject, LOL sorry its funny, a rare earth metal as they called it, into my veins so they can see my veins.)
Results came back on that the following Monday and they both came back normal. Praise GOD!!! So now I am just waiting it out until my next appt. I have an eye appt next Wednesday 10/15/08 to follow up on the appt I had earlier. The Neurologist also said that they would watch the visual field test that the eye Dr. does to make sure that its not getting worse.
So yeah thats about all of it!!! Thanks for all of your prayers. I will definatly keep everyone posted if something changes.
