Hi all!
yesterday it was 2 months since I joined the D club. It has been emotionally rough beggining, bot now things started to settle.
I'm on 4 hours 3x week and I'm considering to prolong to 5 hours. In 2 weeks time I'm switching my center, cause classes start in October and I want to be closer to my working place. I will work full time.
My fistula is doing great and on Friday they will stick me with larger needles to rich higher pump speed (at the moment 250). My monthly results are fine, except Phosporus level due to binders switch.
I'm phisically completly fit, no tiredness after treatment. They will increase my dry weight cause BCM machine showed I gained some weight. My apetite hasn't been so big in years.
I also aomst completed check-ups for transplant list. On tuesday I have my final meeting with anesthetist doctor. The only problem that occuers during checkups was some blood in my stool. From 3 samples, 1 had invisible traces of blood. I'm waiting, what my doctor will decide about that. I think it is nothing serious.
So, let's hope I will be on list very soon.
Cheers,
GT
