We are going home, thank God!

Our IDS said they made an initial reading of the MRI scan/s and said they’re clear! The thickening of the colon lining is no longer there and the lymph nodes are all gone. It’s really TB and they have been resolved. Twin A has no malignancy or any symptoms of autoimmune disease, her TB is also gone!

We’re just waiting for the official reading of the scans.

Thank you, Lord!

IDS said during the course of TB treatment, there are instances that lymph nodes will increase as the infection is still putting up a fight (“nanlalaban”) and then they dissipate. Our team of doctors are just making sure nothing is off, especially with quality of tests and reading of scans and test results vary wildly from hospital to hospital. Since Twin A’s TB is atypical, our doctors have to be thorough. Plus genetics is shit.

Part of the thorough examination is the running of TB quantiferon test. Our IDS said she expects it to be negative, otherwise a positive reading means Twin A’s TB strain is drug-resistant. However, the result would be released next week since it’s a holiday tomorrow and on Monday.

We’re going to be discharged tomorrow.
