that are "exotic" - meaning mostly that they will take longer to get results. Also still waiting results of urine tests (which he's still
collecting)
Meanwhile they are phasing Shawn off of his current meds and starting him on others - calcium channel blockers and alpha blockers instead of beta blockers and diuretics. So far today that seems to be doing much
better, in fact part of the day it was too low. So they'll be adjusting that a little more tomorrow.
The upshot of this is it looks like we'll leave here tomorrow with no diagnosis but hopefully a better handle on the BP. Possibly he'll be redoing some of the exotic tests and urine tests in the coming weeks, depending on how the first set come out.
Not the quick answer we were hoping for but hopefully the most dangerous symptom is under some control - and the rest is at least under investigation.
