Sorry for taking up so much space on this pray request board, but.....
Amy has been suffering with hives covering her body, wheezing, and chest pain. She went through a bunch of allergy testing last month, they were negative. She went through more testint today, but the specialist said they now know what is going on.....
Amy is allergic to nothing....she has an auto-immune disease that can cause the hives and wheezing and asthma---hubby didn't seem to get as much info as I would have liked--she does have an epi-pen now for big reactions, but otherwise it is in the family of rhumetoid arthritis and lupus....poor girl---hopefully now she can begin to get it under control.
This is a newly discovered auto-immune desease that has a lot a experimental trials going on....I am really afraid of this. She goes back in a month for more tests and the doctor will have more of a plan as to how to proceed. (right now she is on triple allergy meds and benadryl liquid---can we say, night, night Amy!
Prayers will be appreciated--again!!

Oh, poor dear Amy, Joann! The diagnosis seems so large now, but thanks be to God they've figured out what is going on and can begin to formulate a plan of action that will address Amy's needs! I'll definitely pray for Amy!
