Title: Len's December Labs
Post by: willieandwinnie on December 07, 2007, 07:45:56 AM

 :yahoo; I am so happy. We didn't drive to DC Wednesday because of the snow. Transplant doctor had primary care doctor draw labs. Doctor called this morning and said that if he didn't know Len's history he would never know he had been through so much looking at his labs.

Creatinine 0.9
BUN 16

His RBC, HGB and HCT are on the low normal range but with this stupid diet that doesn't surprise me much.

I just had to share with my family how happy I am at this moment.  :bandance; :clap;

okarol, thanks for asking. Actually he is getting cleaned up and we are going shopping. First time in over 7 years! He is sleeping better but still gets tried pretty easy. His weight is up to 136 and he has a very good appetite, which makes me very happy. He has been helping me in the kitchen and taking care of the dogs (I still take care of Mouse (the cat)). He has just a wonderful color that I hadn't seen while he was on dialysis. I have decided that this Christmas I have so much to be thankful for. Have a wonderful weekend.
