One Day at a time here

  • 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

Re: One Day at a time here

Hey @Shaz51 , yes, there are PSW workers on, but maybe they were training others?

Was everything okay? Feel free to email us with any concerns @Shaz51

Hope you're okay.

Re: One Day at a time here

💙 sorry you're blue @Shaz51 and waiting again. The pain could be your osteo problems but I'd hoped sleeping better might help a bit. Does moving or not moving make any difference? Hugs 🫂. I know I should keep moving and comply with my exercises better, but I still try to walk. Sometimes it's more like tottering.

Is it still raining?

26 and dry here, feels hotter. Cuppa time I think.

The pain could be your osteo problems --- I thought that too @Dimity as I did an hour weeding yesterday when hubby mowed the lawn, that is what happened

my cpap machine app is telling me I am sleeping a little bit better now

it is raining again today , glad we mowed yesterday

Re: One Day at a time here

I guess the rain will just make the weeds and grass grow again @Shaz51 . I haven't been keeping up. I meant to get into the garden today but am a bit sleepy after a bad night.

Good the cpap app keeps track. I haven't got an apple watch or fitbit or anything like that.

My cat is saying he's awake and a bit hungry..I've been looking at photos of a new puppy in the family.

Thinking about my genetic specialist appointment this coming Tuesday

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

Re: One Day at a time here

Are you waiting on genetic test results @Shaz51 ? I remember you raising it a while back. Looking for Turner syndrome or something.

My nephew was telling me today they can check genetic markers of coeliac disease (seeing if he needed to go gluten free).

So many things they can test for now.

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

Re: One Day at a time here

Yes @Dimity

Reading up on Turners syndrome I have a lot of markers for it

It will be interesting but after 61 years of life , the diagnosis not really matter now

My mum said that all my problems since born was caused by she got German measel when she was pregnant with me

Re: One Day at a time here

You're so very vulnerable at that stage of life. I knew a girl very handicapped... her mum said she hadn't taken thalidomide though.. The girl lived bravely and well and achieved heaps.

Glad there are vaccines for most things now.
