Kevin…..you know you’re already more vulnerable what the kidney transplant. I hate doctors and the hospital but I would’ve brought me and a filled backpack if I was dealing with that situation. With my history of Afib and the Pulmonary Embolism last year, even with taking all my meds makes me more susceptible to continued issues. I went to the ER once with labored breathing that made it impossible sleep(fluid buildup, pretty common.Hence lasix) and almost convinced myself to go again not more than a n]month ago . I don’t want a dead friend, capiche?
Thanks Steve, I got a hold of my FP he will let me know when the order is put in. I’ll get the results today and if my kidney function is even a little worse I’ll head downtown to the main campus. I already had a liver transplant and I don’t want to go through it again with my kidneys. I’m taking this seriously.

Good. And thanks for not poking fun at the wrong organ that I mentioned. Did they do an LFT series? I assume they did. And your white blood cell counts were normal?

Yes many times, Prograf suppressed white blood cells, mine are always low.
 
That's the goni secret sauce, correct Steve?
I only started using the two in earnest this go around. Although I’m beginning to think maybe I should go back tap water after seeing how many people here on R2R use it. Heck even Rhev did when starting out.
 
Enjoy your Saturday everyone 😊
Got some painting to do then off to work...
Peace ✌️
Good morning Joel! Portraits, fruit bowls or landscapes? ✌️

Getting closer and closer!!!
 
And other news I think the lobo I have is either gone or almost gone. I should not buy them. They never last more than several months . Third strike maybe?
Maybe I should take it for now and see if it perks up?
