I'm over the moon, this is my second month in a row my labs have been really good. I didn't leave the unit feeling guilty, or terrible. I'm just so happy, my phosphorus is holding steady at  a much lower level over the last two months, I'm just ecstatic!!!      :bandance;       :beer1;      :bow;

Labs were this past week and I had the same lab results, 3 months in a row, I'm just ecstatic!!!!!       :yahoo;     :bandance;     :bandance;

The doctor on call was shocked how well I'm doing, he was scratching his head on my labs, wondered what I'm eating! I told him the "Renal Diet" and he was really impressed how I'm sticking to it so well!       :yahoo;
