One Day at a time here

One Day at a time here

hello everyone 😎

Was not sure where to write this

so, I have started a new thread

thank you @Oaktree , @Ru-bee for thinking of me today 😍

my results from the doctor was not really good

  • my Kidney function have decreased to 17%
  • my Liver and diabetes levels are up
  • I have Osteoporosis which i will need medication as my bone density has decreased because of the kidney disease
  • they believe that the Liver function is up because of the kidney disease
  • Kidney disease affects every part of your body
  • scan also shows the tinny of my kidney

Writing things down definitely a good idea @Shaz51 hope it helps you get some clarity when you revisit the doc.

Have things settled a bit between the two of you?

Re: One Day at a time here

Writing things down sounds a good idea @Shaz51 . I'm glad if you can work through it together as a team. It sounds so hard, after what you've been through.

I'm in a bit of a slump. The Dr today told me to take antibiotics for longer. And I've lost all my hollyhock seedlings by not watering enough. I wish you could send some of your rain down here.

Yes it has settled down between us @Jynx , he does not even know what he did or said on that day

@tyme , @MindfulMango @Dimity

One step at a time here

With the meds he has gone from being depressed to going non stop

We have had over 5 metres of rain here this year ( 4 months )

Sounds so stressful and even frightening to see this @Shaz51 , We're sitting with you. Do you think he needs an inpatient stay?

In response to: Re: One Day at a time here

Re: One Day at a time here

Going non-stop... can be difficult too... especially if he's now not sleeping @Shaz51

I really hope they can sort out the diagnosis as the ADHD meds are so different to the bipolar ones. Humans, we're complicated.

Hope he's using the energy constructively. Wet weather outside could be a bit limiting.

@Shaz51 sounds like he was in a state of extreme distress, I guess makes sense he was jumping to such extreme thoughts at the time. Doesn't make it easier that you have to live with that memory whilst he has no recollection. Sounds like you're both going through so much right now. Hopefully the meds settle after a little more time to adjust 🤞

Wow that's a lotta rain - makes it hard to do laundry, and keep up with vitamin D!

Re: One Day at a time here

I don't think I've seen you for 2 or 3 days @Shaz51 . I trust you're ok, just busy.

Re: One Day at a time here

@Chasingsunsets , @Jynx , @tyme , @MindfulMango , @Emelia8 , @Till23 ,

Re: One Day at a time here

Lovely to hear from you @Shaz51 but sorry you're not sleeping. Sounds a difficult family situation and probably very triggering for Mr shaz. And then Mothers Day coming up.

Does he have an appt early next week for his review?

Hope you sleep well and have a good and safe trip home.

I'm awake after a nightmare and took a extra med.

.Love to you and your family I hope you can find a way through the troubles.
