Good News...
We just got back from the pediatric opthamolgist and good news, Siobhan's eyes had no indication of inflammation. I'm so happy. The bummer of it is that Uveitis can creep up out of nowhere and there are no other symptoms to indicate a problem-meaning no pain. So we have to go back every 3 months for the next 4 (yes 4) years. If left untreated, Uveitis can cause some serious problems so we have to be vigilant. The doctor didn't have the results of her ANA (that's a blood test for auto-immune diseases like JRA and Lupus-'It's not lupus! It's never lupus!-Quick, who says that?) so if he gets the result and it's normal, then we can go every 6 months instead. So for now, this is awesome news! Hopefully when we go back in Aug, we'll be able to keep saying that!
