Pins and Needles! Ouch!!!

We were able to get many tests done today. They took 6 tubes of blood, did chest x-rays, and an EMG. The EMG took 3 and 1/2 hours and was extremely painful. They had to poke very long electricity endured needles into his muscles from his hand all the way to his shoulder, neck, and spine. Although it was painful, Jason is a trooper and is doing well. We miss our kids so much,but we are so glad to be here to get help. Tomorrow at 11:30, they will inject radioactive material (also called tracers) into Jason. Four hours later they will do an octreotide scan. Then he has to go back the next day for another scan. After that we have an apt. with a GI specialist, a neurologist, and then the internal doc that we saw first. Once we know what is wrong with him, they will come up with a treatment plan. Things are moving very fast which is a blessing!
