Cat Scan Results
We heard from the doctor yesterday regarding Ben's Cat Scan. They said his brain ventricles looked slightly bigger, but ultimately not that much difference. The doctor was curious how Ben was doing and I told them he's been - no vomiting, not excessively cranky and not lethargic. Those would all be signs that his brain wasn't handling the extra pressure. I gave them his head circumference (I measure them monthly) and the nurse was going to plot those measurements, talk to the doctor and let me know when he wants to see Ben again. I'm hoping for just another Cat Scan in 6 months, but we'll see. So, overall it was good news that Ben doesn't have anything drastic going on in his brain to require surgery.

That is good news, but I know it must be incredibly scary to always have that as a concern. I am so sorry Amy. I'm glad the symptoms are not present. Thanks for the update.
Glad you got good news from the CT scan, Amy. To me, the neurology stuff is sometimes the scariest to deal with because it's all so unknown. I hope Ben continues to be symptom-free.
