life is all about risks...

i went to the doctor one more time before i  leave for california for a while. we are trying vancomycin again for the c diff since my symptoms  are still here despite the test being negative..sometimes c diff tests give false negatives ive heard. after some phone calls and the pharmacy talkin to the insurance company they gave me vancocin..which is in tablet form, not liquid like the kind i had before so we will see how it works..but rather than over $1000, it only cost $12...blessing! the dr and i discussed that i may very well have both crohns and ulcerative colitis. the depth of the ulcers and the inflammation and blood tests suggest crohns. the location of the disease and the absence of some type of something they look for with crohns..suggests ulcerative colitis..so who knows. lets hope northwestern can give me answers soon.

im leavin for cali on monday. im having a lot of mixed feelings and anxiety about the trip..i think because im gonna miss my family so much. pray that i can keep my emotions in check lol and that takin Lady, my cat, will be stress free.
