Dr's, we don't need no stinking Dr's

If only that were true. Justin's GI Dr. called today to discuss his blood work and ultrasound results. She's concerned with the abnormal IGA levels, as well as the small size of his kidneys, so she wants Justin to see Dr's in the immunology and nephrology clinics.

Since Dr. Hirsch went over the ultrasound results with me yesterday I wasn't caught off guard when GI referred us to nephrology. Dr. Hirsch plans to discuss J's results with the kidney specialist in her building when he's back in the office next week. She also wants to speak with someone in the immunology clinic to discuss his history and make sure whether or not they really need to see J. I definitely appreciate the second opinions, all this is a lot to take in right now.
