Aunt Cathy sent the following update on Will. She gave me permission to share it with all of you. Keep Will in your prayers!
"Update on Will. We went to see Dr. Sharp, our family doctor this morning. Since Primary Children ruled out the heart issues that accompany pots, he thinks there is a good chance that William has Addison's disease. That would mean his adrenal gland is producing too little cortisol. We'll go to the hospital tomorrow morning for a blood draw. It would be great if it is Addison's because then they would bring his cortisol up to normal and all his symptoms go away. If it is not Addison's we will go to a neurologist or endocrinologist, whichever we choose to go to first. There are still other options of things it might be that they can fix. Or it could still be a dysautonomia."
