We have antibodies!!

Today was 1 week since Owen's blood draw for the pneumonia titer re-vaccination test. The Dr had said it would take several days to a week to get the results, so I anxiously checked my phone all day. By the time I was able to check my messages, I had one from the Dr saying that she had the results & please call to discuss them. Then there was one from the nurse, requesting that I call to discuss his test results. Uh-oh, 2 calls w/ test results in less than 2 hours? I usually have to stalk the Dr's office for test results. I called the office during my lunch & both the Dr & the nurse were at lunch. Of course! I finally connected with the nurse after school & was told that Owen's test results were NORMAL!!! He made antibodies!! Yay! Of course, that means we still don't know what is making him sick. So, we need to go see another pediatric pneumologist for a 2nd opinion and the biopsy for cillary disfunction. Unfortunately, the first available appoinment isn't until June 18 :-( It is going to be a l-o-n-g 3.5 months! Owen is already sick again.

Hopefully we are starting to get somewhere & get some more puzzle pieces put together. Yay for streptoccus pneumoniae antibodies!!!!
