What a day

So it has only been Day 1, right. Well I guess Mayo knows how to move and shake.

This afternoon is all about progress. I had two doctors visits, some testing, and repeated a fasting study to hit a really low glucose reading. They already started getting blood work back in after an hour or two. Called me by the time I made it back to my hotel room with great news.

The blood tests do indicate I have an insulin problem. They are still waiting for results from a few time points but it looks like insulin. Which it's good to pinpoint a cause. I thought that would be it but they had a lot more to tell me. After reviewing my scans from back in Nov at school, they did see a mass on my pancreas (FINALLY)!! It is small but based on their trained eye they think this could be the culprit. I am overjoyed to find that rascal.

They will likely call back over the weekend or give me the rest of test results on Monday. But I am already scheduled to meet with a few doctors and a CAT scanner on Monday to talk about this mass and what to do next.

Isn't that amazing. Only 24 hours later and progress!
