Well Dr Tami called last night from home. First, Carolyn THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for the word Ferratin. That is 1/2 the problem. Spose to have above 50 and Brook has a whopping 11. Wait for the ENT or whatever doctor to call back. What has me totally freeked out is that d**n lung x-ray. Tami said it looked to her like a sick kids lungs Asked if she was feeling ok. She has not been sick. I'm freeked out. Wait for that doctor to call as well. Hubby is doing very poorly as of late. Most likely will have to take him to the hosp soon if I have to beat him unconcious to get him there I'm here at work real quick to give Carloyn a thank you and b/c the darn pipes busted under the building in the lovely 10* weather. I really need a hug guys and maybe some Prayers if you have some to spare. Thx See ya Saturday

Hey! You are so welcome. John's level was 9, so you can imagine how terrible his sleep habits are. I hope all works out with Brooke and your husband. This is just not the time of year for any extra stress!!!!

Thx girls. Had an extra day off work b/c office helper couldn't make it up her hill. Freezing rain. All is sunny and much better today Well, they are putting Brook on some Iron meds. I know Susan said no Iron but we're just going to see if this is the help she needs. I'll be doing my research here today for sure Hey Carolyn, is that what was perscribed for John? Were also going up to Doernbeckers for another chest x-ray and an x-ray of her throat. What kind of x-rays are still being discussed. I will do whatever needs done to see what's going on when the noise is being made. Is it realllly her throat and these malasias or is this a lung noise. I WILL find out for certain!! This probally sounds really pissy of me but gosh darnit, i'm tired of no solid evidance of this funny noise she makes and now with the first xray looking "iffy" (after i've begggged for xrays before and always got told it's her throat) and not being able to take a full breath, they talk of oxygen, i'm going to make certain of a few things first!! I'm sick of it. Just taking their word for it w/o proof I can see w/ my own eyes and get explained to me by a specialist is just not going to happen anymore!! Can anyone tell i'm a bit flustered by this cow poop? LOL It's a beautiful day here. High of maybe 45* and super sunny Life is good

Hi! Yes, John is on iron. The doctor prescribe a liquid form as he won't take pills. We had the pharmacist flavor it because it tastes pretty bad, but he only has to take it for 3 or 4 months to build up his levels. Then he goes off it. It is really strange how much better he sleeps. We are still waiting for him to get into the U of M sleep clinic, but at least his nights have improved so much I can afford to wait now!!
good luck, - it seems like you have more than your fair share of troubles.
