The Girl Who Cried Wolf...

That's a pretty good description of how I've felt most of the day. It's because I was so worked up and had everyone else worked up about the lumbar puncture that had been scheduled today and subsequently cancelled. Several people had rearranged their schedules to be here for me. And I am so thankful for each of them and their unselfishness to care for me. I guess I'm just not used to relying on anyone and having to do so has been hard for me. Thus feeling as though I cried wolf when individuals rearranged their lives for me. I am forever greatful to each of them.

So now my waiting game for answers truly begins. The good news is the specialist visit is scheduled for next Wednesday. The cardiac monitor on the 9th and the dobbler and echo on the 12th with follow up and hopefully (good) answers and treatment on the 20th if not sooner. The nurse told me yesterday the doctor has opened up her schedule so maybe I can get in sooner if they have test results. It seems so far and yet it doesn't. In the meantime I just continue to try to take it one-day-at-a-time.
