Today I got the call from Kennedy's doctor. She was calling to give me the results of the recent stool sample. Mostly good news. Her IBD markers are all down. This shows us that she is in remission. The inflammation is minimal. That is awesome news. The bad news is that she is still not digesting carbohydrates. Right now we have her taking a pancreatic enzyme 20 minutes before breakfast and dinner. The enzyme is suppose to help with digestion. Dr. House has recommended us to give the enzyme to Kennedy at lunch time too. We will see if taking it 3 times a day will help.
