Test after Test after Test

I have been so frustrated with the specialists I have seen. There are no answers to what I am dealing with. 

I met with my Primary Care Physician today and we went over several situations and I appreciate him so much for listening to me and I could tell he was frustrated with us not being able to figure out certain situations, but he helped me by dealing with getting me some trials for pancreatic enzymes thinking that part of my health and digestive issues maybe pancreatic insufficiency. 

I think that makes so much sense to me as I sometimes have diabetic type feelings, but also have digestive issues as well so it can be pancreatic. I then got and EKG, and am wearing a heart monitor for 24 hours.It is frustrating, that of course, I haven't had any tonight. I will share later about what I think is causing them, but I love that he is addressing it. 

I guess they had some issues getting me scheduled for a sleep study but were working on it when I went in, and then they got me scheduled for an upper GI and a colonoscopy. I got a call scheduling those out for next month and I really felt like even if nothing changes, I am doing all that I can to try and figure out what is going on with my thyroid / weight / and health. 

I felt that my mother was near today. I saw several rainbows at a store, and while there, the song by the band Bread, came on called "Everything I own" which my mother put to a slideshow of photos of Christ which she showed to youth all over the world while traveling as a professional speaker. I then found a in the package wind sock that hold a photo, and inscribed on the top is the song my siblings and I sang at her funeral which she sang performing all over while we were growing up as she was in the Tabernacle Choir and did solos all over. This was probably one of the songs she sang the most. It is called "If I Were and Angel" and the words of the first line were embroidered in the top of the windsock! 

When I got to the hospital, there is a photo of a barn with a rainbow over it in the waiting area, and I forgot that they also have another barn with a double rainbow in the lab! 

It was like my mother was saying things will be OK and you will figure out your health! I was grateful for her being near as I struggle to figure this all out! 

Have a blessed day!
