Test Results are back!

I received a call from our pediatrician's office this morning telling the EEG results. I guess Preston had "high voltage spikes in the frontal lobe evident with epilepsy". Whatever that means. I didn't speak to my doctor so I did not get many questions answered. They are referring us to a neurologist but the problem is we can't get into a doc a Children's Mercy until May and the soonest appointment at KU Med is April 21st. I told the person on the phone that I wanted to go to Childrens and really wasn't interested in KU Med. She put me on hold and talked to my pediatrician who is going to call the neurology clinic at Children's herself to see if they can get us in sooner since we already have a confirmed EEG. I am suppose to hear back directly from my pediatrician this afternoon and will have questions answered at that time. I am really upset right now and have a million thoughts running through my head. I don't know what this means for Preston and just want to see the neurologist now! I having been trying to google the result but I am getting no where. Hopefully we will get in sooner than later.

This afternoon I am taking Preston to his first dentist appointment. I am super excited for this. God, I just hope nothing is wrong with his teeth. The poor kid has been through alot the last few weeks.

On a brighter note, last night Dexter and I went to eat dinner to celebrate my birthday with our friends Rick and Nina. We arrived to the restaurant and I was surprised by a table full of our friends. Thanks to Dex and Nina for planning it. It was a great dinner and great night. I really needed it!

Sorry you have to play the waiting game. I know how frustrating it can be to have to wait when it comes to your child's health! Thinking about you guys!
