Ok all,
We all know what has been going on with me and the MRI's being abnormal and having to get the spinal tap done. Well I found out this morning that the spinal fluid came back abnormal as well. I also found out that my white blood cells are elavated more than my red blood cells which means infection. What do I do now, I am so scared and she isn't even trying to talk about putting me into the hospital. She is thinking it is more like spinal meninjatis (sorry can't spell it). I have a call into my General Practice doctor and I'm going to ask her what I should do. Do I immediately go to another hospital, do I stay, do I ask to be put in the hospital. What do I do I have never been so afraid in my life as what I am right now. I know that I have to have faith but right now fear is taking over. Please help me this is my life I need advise and I need it fast.
Love,
Bernie
