My FI has a close gal friend at school. She is wonderful and part of his small group of friends. She loves to send me photos of the group events so I get to see FI with his friends (we are long distance). I have no complaints about their friendship.
Well she has been sick, like really sick. First an upper respiratory infection. Then she started having weird symptoms: vertigo/dizziness, occasional cut out of hearing, occasional facial numbness, occasional tingling feeling throughout her body, and problems using the restroom. They did a CT and couldn't find anything so just told her it was stress and sent her home. She has had the symptoms for 4 weeks and was sent home 4 times and told not to come back unless she faced nausea too (apparently that was the golden symptom?). Well she went to a neurologist with nausea two days ago and was told that she might have MS and they need to schedule an MRI. But they won't let her call to schedule it, so she is waiting for a call from the doctor and freaking out because she might have MS. Man, my heart really goes out to her. I hope it is something else. My aunt has MS so I know it isn't fun. Anyways, I'm trying to figure out what I can do to help. I sent her a message offering FI or I to help wherever we can. I sent a get-well card about 2 weeks ago. She wants to get the MRI over with but the doctor hasn't called to schedule it yet and she is pretty upset.
Anyways, just wanted to vent a little before I go back to working on hw. FI's dad does medical research and is working on an MS project. We told him that he needed to hurry those results along!
