bad news...

ok so,vince started coughing shortly after CF clinic..we were told his staph was 2+ rather than being his normal 1..he also had ecoli and an unknown bacteria (that we were not told about) well with the cough he was started on Cipro for the staph infection..he has also been pretty constipated getting miralax 1-3x daily wasnt doing anything (which is VERY odd) along with there being a neon yellow fluid..it was not shiny meaning it was not greasy..so we called the dr back and they wanted him tested for C-Diff and constipation and then we will be treating the unknown bacteria...so at the peds we got BIG news when i found a lump on the back of his while finger combing his hair..i mentioned it to the dr who then found another lump..both are pea sized,soft and move..so these indicate cysts rather than lymph nodes..however i am scared and am wonering if i should demand more testing on these such as doing an MRI or a CT scan...im afraid of these more serious than "just a cyst"...peds think for sure vince is constipated because its not likely for him to of gained a pound in less than a month..we did 1/2 an enema this morning and had "ok" results..we are to do the rest later today..and increase miralax even more...we should have the C-Diff results tomorrow...please keep vince in your thoughts and prayers that thse cysts disapear..
