lastest medical update

So, it is now October 12th and I went to the doctor's again last week and got some actual results from my many tests. The have found that I have hepatitis in my system but now need to figure out which strain it is. I have the antibodies for Hepatitis A in my body but they are not yet sure if if it from the vaccine I got two years ago or because I had Hep A. The results from my latest liver tests were positive though - my liver function is improving. It is still not normal but is much better than the tests from when I was in the emergency room. The doctor has scheduled me for more tests at the end of October and then back to the office for results on November 2nd. Now, this was the day that my mother was flying to Haiti to visit me so we had to call and cancel the ticket and she has a year to use the value of the ticket.
