Get well soon is kind of old fashioned but it does cover it. I hope you at least have more information soon so you can deal with however things are and move on from there.
Laura, thank you so much for taking the time to comment. It was really nice of you. "Get well soon" definitely covers it and the sentiment is greatly appreciated. I went back to the doc today and ruled out one diagnosis, got a cortisone shot which may (fingers crossed) help dramatically, and had more blood work done. Keeping a positive attitude that the end will arrive soon, and little notes like yours always help with that!
Glad to be a little help. :)
I like your idea of sharing our blog reviews. I'm actually using a different blog for the 31 Day Challenge. It's WordGrrls.com. I didn't do a review but have spent time today commenting on each blog in the comments list from the Day Five post. I like your idea and will do up a review so we can cross post. :)
