A Glimmer of Hope

Please please pray for an appointment Clay has on Thursday. He is going to see an endocrinologist. We think we have found the reason for his migraines. His doctor called this morning to give us the results of a blood test he had done last week and the MRI he had on Saturday. It seems as if Clay might have a condition called acromegaly, and it might be the main culprit in his constant migraine. If so, there is a medication he can take and control the condition. AND...according to his neurologist...it COULD significantly reduce if not get rid of his headaches if it is related to them. PRAISE GOD!!! Please pray that this is our answer and that a cure for Clay is as easy as taking the right medication. I am hopeful but trying not to get ahead of myself. Clay keeps reminding me that even though it is exciting to think that this might be the answer, he still has the headache.
This could possibly postpone our Chicago trip. We don't know at this point how long it takes the medication to work or when we will see a change, if any, in his headaches. Please pray that we would see a change and SOON!! If this does not help we will still probably go to the clinic just at a later date.
YEA!
