I'm not saying this is happening to me, but I feel like my faith is being stretched and pulled in a gazillion different directions at the same time.
I went to Atlanta and met with the surgeon--had a great consultation. The next day, I return to the hospital for the surgery. We check in and wait. As I'm laying in the bed ready to be whisked off to the operating room, a nurse comes and tells me Dr. Miller has decided to wait. He wants me to consult with a neurologist up here in Atlanta. Oh man--talk about disappointed!
So, I met Dr. Johnston. I like her. Except she wants to study and evaluate my case before approving surgery. UGH. So, now I'm spending my second week in Atlanta without surgery. I am trying a new treatment tomorrow--plasmapheresis. I'll have it for 5 days. It's a temporary fix, but I should feel better for a few weeks...maybe long enough for Dr. Johnston to decide the surgery will be beneficial for me.
Thank you for the prayers. :) I hope this treatment will help--even a small reprieve would be nice.
On the + side, I think I've fallen in love with Priceline.com. I got great accommodations in Atlanta this week for a good price.
