Day 9!- my schedule

Kerissa • December 11, 2013

Yesterday:


Saw cardiology and orthopedics for my POTS disorder and back pain. Will update some other day about how these appointments went. 🙂

Today:

It snowed about 4 more inches this morning here in Cincinnati! Sooo fun and beautiful.

Had an abdomen x-ray to follow up on this GI test I had this past Thursday called a sitz marker study.  

Saw Pulmonary Medicine once again and went through Part 2 of the pulmonary function test to check lung function/strength.

Was able to do something fun after my appointments and visit the Newport Aquarium in Kentucky! The oregon coast aquarium in Newport, Oregon pales in comparison! 😉 These white alligators were on display at the one in Kentucky! Soo weird but amazing! I’ll try to post a pic when I get home.

Tomorrow:

Have a super early appointment with the mitochondrial disease specialist and genetic counselor in Genetics. Will be discussing my nuclear mitochondrial exome sequencing results.

Also have a physical therapy consult in the afternoon at one of Cincinnati Children’s neighborhood locations.

Hopefully GI will be calling with my esophageal, antro-duodenal, and colonic manometry test results. Bracing myself as the doctors said results can often be normal even when experiencing GI dysmotility..

I hope to update with results tomorrow night! But if not, then definitely after my appointment with Neurology on Friday.. 🙂

Good night, everyone!
