Hey All,
I am FINALLY in California with my family. The flight was good although it made my head really sore and then I got nauseous pretty bad during the night. Apparently that is typical for AVMer's (or so they call us) and so I am not too worried. So I am definitely blessed that I could cure the pain with prayer and one regular strength Tylenol.
It is nice to be able to feel pretty normal and get away from all the tests and doctors, although at times it kind of brings anxiety. I have faith that things will all be okay on this trip.
Thank you all for continued prayer! Just wanted to let you all know that all is well !!

Test day - Sorry its so late !
Hey Everyone,
So I had my CT Angio, where they give me my IV and then inject dye into me through it. I was so nervous going there but God gave me a peace all of the weeks leading up to it. Usually I lose sleep and have night terrors. But once again God is good, and I haven't a night terror for 2 weeks! You know it's sad when you wake up from a normal bad dream and are grateful and go right back to sleep. Anyways, the lady who did my scan was AWESOME! The IV went in easily, and I even did it without a freezing patch!! I was quite proud of myself! :) When she did the first scan without the dye, everything was good, then when she put the dye in, it gave a sensation that is really indescribable but I'll do my best. You feel it go into the IV and it feels very very warm, and then you feel it travel through all your veins, from your arm where the IV is and slowly down your body. The CT tech warned me of this and that I was going to experience a 'peeing my pants' sensation...and trust me I did. hahahah. Luckily, it was just the sensation, if you know what I mean.
Anyways, all went well and I will update as soon as I get results. My doctor is on vacation for the past week I think and I leave to meet my parents on Friday morning at 8:30am to meet my parents in California for 11 days. I'm SOOO excited, this is a well deserved vacation for my family, that's for sure!
Thanks again for all your thoughts and prayers! I thank God continuously for all your support!
I ask for prayer for:
-My results to come back clear and my only explanation is God's healing hand
-That the flight doesn't make me feel sick or give me a headache
-For people I know that are struggling with colds and other sicknesses
