Update on Trever

This morning we went to see his regular physician to go over his blood work. His cholesterol is high and some of his liver readings were a little high. The doctor wasn't too concerned. She has noticed that he has lost 13 lbs in the past 6 weeks and suggested that he continue to diet and exercise to lower his cholesterol. Our next appointment was with the gastric physician with regards to his emptying study test. We are still waiting on two more tests from his gastric study, but the physician didn't see anything to be too concerned about. She wants him to continue taking his three medications for his heart burn and acid problems. She believes that his stomach is not emptying as quickly as it should because one of his medications relaxes his esophagus, stomach, and small intestines. She did suggest that we both see a nutritionist to discuss a plan to lower our cholesterol and a plan for his acid reflux. I had a complete blood test as well and I have boderline high cholesterol. Makes me laugh because we do not eat bad. Yes we will have sweets every now and then, but not enough to cause concern. I think the root of most of Trever's issues is stress. His job is very demanding and he takes on a lot of stress because of it. If he can somehow balance the two then I think his problems will begin to fix themselves. I will keep you posted on his update. They want him to come back in two months to have these tests performed again. Thanks for keeping him in your prayers.
