Hunter had his easiest appointment yet today. This one did NOT require a blood draw...yippee!!! It was just vitals and quick exam/symptom check by the doctor. He has been having undigested food in his stool (I'm getting pretty good at all these medical terms, aren't I?!) quite a bit lately but it's hard to tell if it's something viral or what. Overall, he is still doing very well...happy and full of energy. He was so nervous though, asking every single person we came in contact with if they had needles and if they were going to poke him today. :(
In three weeks, he'll have another endoscopy to check for eosinophils again. This will be interesting to see if they're still there or have gone away since the one he had done at the beginning of the study. They will also be combining his "big appointment" on this day, so he only has to have the IV put in once. We will stay at the hospital all day (endoscopy time plus 9 hours for the study visit) and have blood draws every hour (or two?) After this, I believe there will only be one more appointment a few weeks later to conclude the study.
