    The waiting time is always the toughest to cope with, I think. You know it's something, just not what.

    Wishing you all the best for findings that are easiest to handle and heal.

    I've been thinking about you and wondering when you would see the specialist. When is the cat scan? Soon I should think since you are being referred by a specialist. Many positive thoughts being sent your way that the scan shows what is really wrong with you and that it's something that can be dealt with quickly and completely. I hate it when my body gets sick, I feel so out of control of things. Please try to think of this as one more step towards getting well.

    Is your husband managing to cope with all the park cats and your own? Do you have any volunteers? Did you ever see the cat with damaged front legs again?

    The cat scan will take 7 - 10 days to schedule since they have to get the "stamp of approval" from my insurance company.

    Kevin is doing a WONDERFUL job keeping up with the park cats and the ones at home. The hardest part is trying to keep the house somewhat clean!

    We do have a couple of women that will feed the park cats when we go on vacation, but since Kevin's willing and able that's all we need at this point.

    Sadly we haven't seen the poor little cat again. We both feel heartbroken that we haven't and really fear the worse for it.

    Thanks and I sure hope they get to the bottom of this soon so I can start feeling better! My worst thing is the fatigue, it's unbelievable. I have no energy or incentive to do much of anything these days.

    Lisa, I sure hope that the doctor will be able to help you and that your tests will all be fine. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent your way.

    I also hope that Avon will be okay too. I sure hope it's nothing serious. I'll be adding her to my prayer list.

    Please take care and feel better soon. (((HUGS)))

    What's the latest, have they scheduled your scans yet? I'm looking at the calendar - the 17th was a week ago yesterday. How are you feeling? I hope you're better and they can get you in soon. [hug]

    Thanks everyone! They just called late this afternoon and I'm scheduled to go in Friday morning for the cat scan, and not until 05/15 for the ultra sound on my legs. Since they're suspecting a possibility of blood clots they are doing the ultra sound. That's the soonest they could get me in for that. I appreciate all your well wishes and I will update everyone when I hear something.

    Avon's test came back just fine so they gave her a shot for inflammation and she hasn't thrown up in days. They may want to put her on a low dose of steroids just to ensure the inflammation does not flare back up.

    Now lets hope my tests come back as well! Again THANK YOU!!
