The colonoscopy was done this morning and they didn't find anything. No signs of bleeding anywhere...no inflamation...nothing. Still could be recurring diverticulitis. Hospital Dr. said they may want to do the camera thing where she swallows it to see if there is any bleeding in the small intestines. The GI Dr. hasn't been as of yet. The hospital Dr. even said that the may send her home tomorrow.....duh????? What the heck??? They haven't figured anything out yet.

They also did an MRI because Mom has arthritis in her hip, but for the last few days it's been sending a horrible pain down her leg...bad enough that she cries. Her leg then becomes numb feeling. Sounds like a nerve is getting pinched somewhere, but I will find out the results of that tomorrow.

I'm not sure what to think or do until I get back over there. If there is a chance of Mom bleeding and becoming weak again, which there is....she's not going to be able to stay alone. I wouldn't mind her being here, but I don't even want to be here...lol. Plus the fact that she is starting to just tell me to do this or to do that without even trying herself. Not sure I could live that way.

Well enough of that for today....praying for some better...more informative news tomorrow.

I came home around 2:00 went straight to the couch and slept till after 6. Hopefully I'll be able to sleep tonight and head back to the hospital in the morning.
