One of the LAST medical examine that I had to have was a BRONCHOSCOPY.In which I had done at the Seattle Cancer Care center in Seattle,Wash.The cancer care center don't get many ckd patients there.I had to have this done Cause something was found on my lungs.This is one medical examine that you DON'T want to have DONE.Unless you NEED to have DONE. >:(The set up procedure take an hour.Before you have this done,You are NOT allow to eat from 10pm the night before till it's completely over with.The bronchoscopy itself take anywhere from 15 minutes to 30 minutes.Then off to the recovery room you go for another 3o minutes.You're given juice & some crackers while you're in the recovery room.A person monitor your vital signs.The results showed that I had a tiny infection on my lungs.Inwhich I had taken anitbotics for.I was very HUNGRY when the bronchoscopy was over with. ;)
I'm taking Renvela ( 3 tablets with each meal) to control my phophrous level.This seem to be working.Cause the dietian seem to be happy this is under control.One of the problems that I have is my weight.I've been told to GAIN some weight.It I'm quite HAPPY :) with my current weight.
Love & HUGS to All,
Sandi
