We are waiting for results from some tests last week.
The gallbladder came out fine, but when they started the anesthetic, Rich's blood pressure went way up. All during surgery and in post-op and in recovery, they fought with his blood pressure. After it finally came down, it stayed down while he was in the hospital overnight, but by Monday it was up again. We tracked it for a week with the high at 156/105 and the low at 128/88.
So the internal medicine Dr. who was treating him in the hospital decided to order tests to determine if he had tumors on his adrenal glands. These are rare, very rare, but the symptoms present as a classic case. Even if they are present 95% of them are benign, so there isn't too much to worry about statistically...But that doesn't keep me from worrying.
Worrying and waiting for his test results. Trying desperately to keep up with what needs to be done even though I am already exhausted and the day has just begun. But I take comfort in the verse I read this morning Psalm 105:4 "Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always."
So I am trying not to worry, trying to seek the Lord and his strength so that I can make it through another time of waiting.
