.................

its been such a long time since i blogged about hamza and huda! but yea its been a roller coaster ride!
hamza hasnt been doing that well the past 2 to 3 months i would say.
actually since the past month hamza has been needing diastat for seizures once a week or on other occasions even 3 times a week! normally hamza would only get it like once in 2 to 3 months as needed......it worries me a great deal.
today i took him for his shunt to be tapped cuz i have this very uneasy feeling that its got something to do with his shunt! last time we were in the hospital the neuro surgen didnt want to tap it cuz its been more then a year since hamza's last revision. he said that we can actually put hamza at rish for tapping the shunt as he can get an infection because of anything going in from the outside! he said the ct scan and shunt series x ray didnt worry him and that it looked ok..so i let it go then.......i decided i had to do it for my piece of mind cuz hamza has been having these weird fevers were his hands and feets and like frozen and his head is burning hot!
so what i noticed today when they tapped his shunt was that hardly any fluid came out and there was a lil blood! that freaked me out....the doc said thats perfectly normal..........but i remember the last time he tapped it we got alot of clear fluid!............someone please tell me that almost no fluid coming out with a lil blood is normal...cuz it doesnt sound normal to me!
