Title: Good Report
Post by: kellyt on February 10, 2010, 06:43:01 PM

Good news at my doctor's appt. today.  Creatinine is still at 1.2 ( :yahoo;) and WBC is down to 1100.  I'm dropping another mg on my Prednisone, stopping the Bactrim, restarting my Cellcept, and I don't have to return to see him for FOUR months!    :clap;

They are also going to schedule me an MRI for my foot.  He was very interested in the injury, but does not believe it has anything to do with the Prednisone.  He was as puzzled as I was as to how it happened.  My guess is I'm too fat!!!!     I'm hoping it's scheduled for Friday, as tomorrow is supposed to be nasty and icey.  I want to stay home tomorrow.  I'm kindof hoping they cast it for a week or two just to give the bones some relief to heal.  I want to start using my exercise DVD's I got yesterday.

So excited you are doing so well....it gives me hope. I am two months post transplant and my new kidney is still a little sleepy. Creatine hovering around 2. Doc says not to worry that my  labs look good and no signs of rejection.  I can't wait until I don't have to go to the doc every other week. Yay! I'm sure you will continue to do well.

Oh, you too!  Thanks.  I was so looking forward to not having to go to the doctor every week or every other week and since transplant I haven't had that perk.  Because of the lymphocele I've been basically every month, so I'm looking forward to not going for four months.  I pray it all continues to do well.  For you, too!
