2/27/07: Day 228 (Tues.) Visiting the Tucson Doc again

Evan had a follow-up appointment in Tucson with the Pediatric Pulmunologists. We met with Dr. Daynes (the same doctor he saw the last time). Evan got a clean bill of health from her (he lungs sounded perfect to her). One last hurdle to jump over to finally be done with all the home oxygen equipment. Dr. Daynes wants Apria (the home oxygen company) to do an overnight pulse-oximeter test on him to make sure his nighttime oxygen saturation is good. We're waiting for the call from Apria to get it set up. Dr. Daynes said Evan doesn't have to come back for about 6 months. We anticipate having to do a few follow-on appointments as he gets older to make sure he doesn't have any asthma/allergy issues.
