Well, Aly's very dedicated cancer doctor called us last night, after hours, to report the findings of the EEG test. It was nice that we didn't have to wait the 3 days we were expecting. After reviewing the test, seizure activity was definitely ruled out. They still are sticking with the assumption that these are muscle/nerve spasms related to radiation. They should decrease with time and hopefully go away all together. The neurologist said it is not uncommon to see such symptoms. She said it is a little uncommon for the eyes to be affected, but uncommon has been the par for the course with Miss Aly.
I'd have to say since her tumor was sitting on the optic nerves and that was the target for the radiation, it seems rather logical that her eyes would be involved. That's just my opinion...
Anyways, they feel a muscle relaxant may help a bit, so we are adding another pill to her regimen for a little while.
Please also join us in praying for Luke Letellier's family today and in the days to come. Luke passed away early this morning. He has joined the strong team of cancer angels.
Glad to hear it was nothing serious. YAY! Praying, praying, praying for Luke and his family. :(
