Dave’s MS Blog

August 13, 2007 – Let the diagnostic testing begin

August 17th, 2007

Today was basically a day of testing and evaluating. Blood tests were done, along with a urinalysis, MRI and EKG. We were able to meet with Dr. Mary who wrote up a case history on Dave and we also met Dr. Mike, who is Dave’s main doctor. We also met our new Chinese friend, Johnny. He is 24 years old and volunteers at the hospital during the day (this helps him in learning English) and nights he works at KFC. He is truly watching over us and helps us in any way that he can. Dave also had an extensive evaluation done by Martin, his physical therapist. This evaluation lasted amost two full hours – we were so impressed! Dave has never in his 30 years of living with MS had such an extensive evaluation done in the U.S. After all the test results come back, the doctors, nurses and therapist will design a treatment program for Dave.
