Waiting is so hard....

when it is something you are looking forward to. It is even harder when you are waiting for news from a doctor. I can't sleep, even having trouble knitting. Alex had his tonsils and adenoids taken out when he was 3.5 years old. Well, March 3rd we found out that his adenoids have grown back. You are not supposed to be able to see adenoids by looking in the throat only with a special mirror or a nasal scope. The PA saw them when she had him open up and say ahh.
She sent us to an ENT. A nasal scope was done on March 6th, it was very uncomfortable but he did ok with it. The ENT said his adenoids were huge and that the upper respiratory area was totally blocked. He was getting no air what so ever through his nose. The large size is what was concerning him. Yesterday Alex had a biopsy. It was hard for me to watch but not nearly as hard as it was for him. The doctor was good but not used to dealing with children (IMHO). You should never promise a child that something will not hurt, or tell him you need only one piece when you end up taking 4. If you are going to go in both nostrils say that, even better, would have been to say that you won't know until you get started. A numbing spray was used but it did not work as well as we would have hoped. It was very painful for Alex. He had a little bleeding right after and then on and off for the rest of the day. I never knew that adenoids could grow back or that they are part of the lymphatic system.
So here I am waiting to hear what the results are, wondering will they call tomorrow or will I have to wait until Thursday. Should I call them as soon as I get up, or give them until lunch? I know this is all very routine to them but this is my child. I need to know something now! At times the Internet is a bad thing. Too much information can be dangerous. So I will stop reading medical websites and try to get some sleep.
