Just had a call this evening from the Consultant at Sick Kids to inform us of the blood test results. Unfortunately, the results are mixed, on the one hand the test that they have been using a lot to watch the progress on her Sarcoid was stable but they are very concerned with her kidney function and have said that she is now to undergo some further tests.
The consultant was making contact with Paediatrics Consultant here in Livingston to arrange for her to be seen at the local hospital in order to repeat all of her bloods and also to be examined by the Paediatrician, depending on the examination we may need to take her across to the Sick Children's hospital to meet with the Rheumatology consultants.
Rebekah has been complaining of joint pain in her legs and also the temperatures have started back up. Both are concerns for the Consultants at this time and therefore due to this and the latest blood results they will maintain her medication at the present level until they get the results of the next lot of tests.
We give thanks for the stability that Rebekah has had over these past weeks but would also ask you to continue to pray for her as we start going through yet further tests that she will co-operate and allow them to do the blood tests without any fights.
