Matt is still feeling the same. No improvement in his symptoms. But, our room has been a revolving door of doctors today. I know a lot of them are students since we are at a teaching hospital, but I stopped counting at about 15. Every time one group leaves, a new one comes in. They are running several more tests, but most of the results take days to come back. The only thing we do know is that his most recent spinal tap did show a slightly elevated white cell count, and the type of white cell elevation he has indicates he probably has something viral. The infectious disease team seems to be leaning toward the types of viruses he would have picked up during his National Guard training out in the field. But, to quote the ID specialist, Matt is a "medical mystery." Please continue to pray for him, the doctors working on him, our kids, and my mom as we all try to get through this!
