Well I had a yearly appointments with the Transplant Team and lots of bloodwork. Plus saw a new specialist for my fatty liver.
Well my liver is fine for now.
Kidney transplant said everything looks good . Well for the cancer screening that they ordered .

Kidney Doctor said i need to think getting the AV fistula just in case my GFR drops. Thats pretty hard pill for me to swallow . But the arm one seems easy and i really don’t want it in my neck area . Also I’m very anemic so I have go for iron treatments . It’s iv so won’t be to bad.

😩 Anyways I need to go on a diet and exercise! I have to lose WEIGHT! The goal is to lose 20 pounds in a year and 10 pounds in six months!

So I would love any tips on getting started and maybe some encouragement! I’m down for a walking buddy!

I may not pray everyday but I do believe in Jesus. Things are getting a little crazy with my GFR and I’m trying not to let it stress me out. But their talking about doing a Arteriovenous fistula (AVF)
in my arm. So it can be ready for dialysis when it’s time. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. My anxiety is at a high level right now and I’m trying not too hard to keep myself from getting sick from worrying to much.

Last month I had a Kidney Transplant appointment . The Doctor said you’re going to get overwhelmed and deep in your thoughts. So you need to start writing everything you do and how you feel. I haven’t journal since my late twenties. So I bought a binder and put a decal on it. Hopefully I can keep up with this.

Because sometimes you don’t listen to your body so it decides for you. I knew I was running on fumes. But I still went to work. I went home early, I was so upset and cried. Why can’t my body just get through a week without being exhausted. I hate that I have health problems! So today I came home and cried and slept the day. If you can keep me in your thoughts and prayers. Send me some good vibes too!

Well it’s been a while since I last posted on here. No Doctor appointment until August.

As of last week I found out that Methodist Hospital wants me decide on a which hospital I want to have my transplant . So we decided on not going with them. I did what every Doctor and Nurse told me to do list every where but I guess Methodist is different. Yes I’m disappointed but hey what can I do.

Today I went for yearly transplant evaluation. I get their and right away they put an iv. Than to MRI and back to MRI because first one wasn’t good. Than the treadmill, guess the medicine didn’t agree with me. Almost pass out and puke. They check my vitals and we waited, than another round MRI . From 7:30 in the morning until 12:30 in afternoon testing . I’m beat and I feel nauseous still.
How was your day?
