Cookies and Crayons

Last Monday morning through Wednesday morning Dougie did his second EEG. As you’d expect, it was a long process. Fortunately, he actually had some spasms so at least it was a lot more productive. The neurologist called midway through to let us know that at that point, the spasms were not causing abnormalities on the EEG but she did want us to finish it.

Dougie All Wired Up

At this point, we’re waiting to hear the results of the rest of the test. We’re also still waiting on the MRI results as well as the blood test results from the testing 2 weeks ago. I plan to call about that today. Things are looking more and more positive all the time though.

I’m almost giddy as I type this. We got the word this morning that Dougie no longer has a milk or soy allergy!

November 16th, we took Dougie into the allergist. They did a scratch test there which showed no reaction for milk or soy. Apparently, they don’t consider that sufficient results though and they sent Dougie for a blood serum test as well. Those results came in this morning that there was a negative reaction and he can start on milk and soy products. More importantly, so can I. What a great way to start a week!!
