10/22 Update

It's been some time so let me catch everyone up.

A few days after the last update, Shannon started to have high blood pressure problems.  Skipping the details, we have been working with all of her doctors trying to resolve the issues.  So far, every theory for the cause has been incorrect.  She can be in a position for about 30-45 minutes, then start sweating buckets and have her blood pressure rise.  This has led to countless sleepless nights over the past week +.  After another doctor visit today, we were admitted back into the hospital to try to find the problem.  So far all tests have come back negative so we are no closer now.  She is spending the night there tonight with plans for a CT scan tonight or tomorrow morning to try to possible find a stone (kidney, gall, etc) or something else.  All the X Rays look good to this point.

It has been very frustrating for all of us.  Two steps forward, one back...

Hopefully the CT scan shows something and we can have a plan of action and get her back out of the hospital.  As you can guess, she is not excited to be back in the hospital again.
