One Day at a time here

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

Oh gosh! I am so sorry that it was not better news. I hope that you can have a transplant or something. Hopefully the next step is not dialysis. If it is you might need to get some audiobooks to listen to while you do it. Oh I am so sorry and I don’t know really what to say. I will pray for you hun! I am getting quite a few SANE people on my prayer list. Love and hugs to you, take care my Sister. Indeed, one day at a time…

I'm so sorry the results weren't better news for you @Shaz51. As your title for this thread says, take it a day at a time. Focus on the next test/scan/appointment and try not to look beyond that. If you start adding 'what ifs' to your worries it will just make it harder.

I know it's so difficult, stressful, and can get overwhelming, but doctors can do amazing things these days so try to stay hopeful and optimistic.

Hello @Shaz51 sorry to hear your news. And I guess you haven't been feeling too good, you must get very tired and sore.

We're with you.. I hope you can cheer yourself with small projects, things that make a difference. Your garden, putting your own stamp on your house, your wonderful work on the forums, your photos and anything else that makes you happy.

Sending big hugs, and a lot of sympathy. And a shout out to Mr shaz for trying to help.
