Latest Update on Jessica
Jessica was released from the hospital this afternoon. Many tests were done over the past 24 hours. We have mixed feelings as we are happy to report that nothing life-threatening was discovered; however, we are disappointed the doctors were unable to provide us with a clear explanation as to why Jessica continues to have these pain attacks. The neurologist started her on a medication for a possible neuralgia though her symptoms don't all match up to indicate this is her problem. He feels the chances of this medication working for her are slim, so he recommended she attend some special sessions on developing pain management skills in order to learn to cope with ongoing severe pain. Jessica has a follow-up visit with him in a few weeks.
As you can imagine, our hearts are heavy as we contemplate the ramifications of not having a clear diagnosis and treatment. Please continue to pray for wisdom as we consider the next step.
