I'm still betting on my maternal instincts here, which my doctor also feels are reliable. Got the MRI report. Talked to my son's doctors. (4 times already this morning, bless them) The MRI doesn't show anything odd for a 15 year old. The only stuff mentioned also says age appropriate. He says the techs get excited about stuff when it may be perfectly normal for the patient's age. Also, his mono test came back negative. (I texted Bobby to kiss away)

My gut all along is that he is being hit by a combination of stuff all at once. Big growth spurt, throat infection with swollen lymph glands, and allergies. The combo has him extremely tired and weak which is very unusual for him. We go to the Neurologist Friday and get his EEG and let her look at the scans, but I think it is growing pains.

I'm blessed to have so many doctors that know and love Bobby because they have watched him grow up in their offices. Since we work with and socialize with our doctors they might get too excited when he isn't well - likely a good balance to my overly calm nature.

Thanks for the ~ma and hugs. I think he will be ok. We'll get his EEG on Friday and go from there. Bottom line - no lumbar punch - I watch House. No good could come from that.

Thanks for the link Seska.

Seska, I joined the event. Good stuff. And I think I just sent you a friend request. I hope it was you - wearing a lovely blue scarf in your profile pic.

Laura, I'm glad that there is nothing ugly showing up in the MRI. I hope Bobby gets to feeling better quickly. Poor kid.

Aims' uncle is driving me nuts. Today, for the first time in like, ever...he has parked me in, blocking the driveway instead of parking on the street while he randomly shovels walks in the area.

I think it's passive aggressive retaliation for my shoveling the walk and driveway etc. this morning and not waiting for his weird ass to do it.

And before anyone asks, no...the streets are not so clogged with snow that he cannot park next to the curb like he usually does.

Where were you planning on going? Or is it just the priniciple of the thing?

Thanks, Calli and Andi. (BTW, I'm only planning to leave the link up for another half hour and then take it down, as it's got real names attached.)

I hope it was you - wearing a lovely blue scarf in your profile pic.

That's me, in my confirmation outfit.

Too much low-level migraine to work, so I'm back in bed. Attempting not to get too mad at myself for this. I was listening to the Church of England General Synod, but it was getting depressing - all schisms, sexuality and women bishops. I'm sure there was once more of a point to the church than that. Hmph.

Mainly principle, but I was considering taking Da Punk to Zoobilee and getting my prescription.

So tell him to move his ass. Or see if he left keys in it.

He didn't and I can't find him.

Probably over at Shirley's.
