Mallory, Saturday

The doctors finally came in to talk to Mom and Mallory. There is definitely some nerve damage, and they have started her on some medication specifically for the pain involved with that. They performed an abdominal ultrasound on her yesterday, and did not see anything with her liver. However, they are going to perform an MRA (?) and MRI on her tomorrow to further investigate the liver, with a possibility of a biopsy. They are under the impression that this is an autoimmune related thing, not related to the medication change. Mom asked repeatedly if the nerve damage was fixable, and they would not respond, so who knows. At least we're getting closer to an answer!
