DOCTORS VISIT REPORT

There is not really much to say.  Dr. Rutland decided not to "stick" Tom for an ammonia level since he had been "stuck" so many times recently.  I guess he seemed satisfied that Tom was doing well.  The reason he stopped the lasix was because he didn't want Tom to become dehydrated but did suggest that maybe Tom take some lasix throughout the week.  Tom is starting to hold some fluid again so I hope he will take the doctors suggestion and take the lasix.  We'll also see what UAB says next week.

Tom drove himself to the doctors office yesterday and has made a couple of trips to the grocery store.  He has an Rx for physical therapy so he should be scheduling those visits.

Please continue praying that his health will stablize and Tom will focus on healthy nutrition and exercise.
