Friday morning Kara will have a scope of her upper GI tract...down her esophagus, through the stomach (I hope all of the Easter candy is all gone), through her duodenum, and into her small intestines. It all sounds pretty intense, but the procedure itself should only take about 10 minutes. She will be under general anesthesia for the first time. I pray she comes out of it gracefully. Her Pediatric GI doctor will do the scope and we should have results right away.
Kara is a little uncertain about this procedure. Ironically, she isn't afraid of the IV, but of the tube going down her throat. She is concerned the tube will get stuck. She is so funny.
You're continued prayers are appreciated. I'll post her results tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully we will have more good news to report!
Blessings!
At least there is some good news! I understand how frustrating it is to search for a diagnosis. At her age I was making the same journey. If she ever needs to talk with someone that's been there, I'm always here.
