2/6/2013 My blood reportFebruary 6th 2013 12:39 am[ Leave A Comment | 12 people already have ]
I had my blood taken in preparation for seeing my cardiologist on Thursday this week. Dr. Hickey ( one of the on staff doctors ) called mom to discuss my report. Seems my kidneys are acting up again .. my BUN is not good it has gone from 87 to 145 and my creatines are not good.. they went from 2.2 to 3.2 ... so we are all very concerned about my decrease in kidney function. Now mom says they are just numbers .. and yes she agrees they are horrible.. but honest to pete, this past week has been my best ever... i am actually sleeping and letting mommy sleep and i have had no gastritis. Looks like they may be making a change in my medication .. and looks like another diet change may be in my future... Dr. Hickey says its very hard to try to figure out , how much of this is kidney disease, how much is caused from the heart not working well, how much is caused by diet. I was eating the KD diet .. but it gave me gastritis .. so mom has been home cooking me a low protein diet .. mom says she needs more guidance in this as she isn't any nutritionalist . We will give you an update after Thursdays visit .
