f/u to Children's Hospital

in Parenting after 35
I spoke with the doctor today, so far there has been no bacteria growth and no signs of malignancy on her samples. There are still a few bacteria cultures still outstanding but those were for treatable infections. She said it was probably an infection that we have gotten with the antibiotics but the inflammation is still there, possible due to some necrosis caused by the primary infection. So, we have a follow up appointment on the 1st and we will discuss if we need to remove that node. I know this sounds terrible but if we do need it gone I want to do it before the end of the year. We have already met our deductible and out of pocket for this year.

    Whew to no malignancy and no bacteria growth. That sounds great. Well, except the surgery, but that's a big maybe. I hope the inflammation goes away and it is o-v-e-r for good. Poor kiddo.

    I am glad you got back good results!  Hoping you get to avoid surgery all together.  I get that, I am trying to get Owen's genetics testing done THIS year because we have already reached our limit.

    I'm so glad it's not malignant!  I hope Vivianna doesn't need surgery, but if she does I hope you get it done while you're at a better spot (ie. met your deductible).

    I totally hear you on the deductible and it doesn't sound terrible at all.  Glad it's not malignant, hope she doesn't need surgery!

    I'm glad the worst things are already ruled out.

    I don't think it's awful to want to get it done when you have met your deductable. It's not like the timing has an impact on the outcome of the proceedure and that is just the reality of how our insurance system is set up.
