Had another doctor's appointment yesterday. My creatinine is back up to 6.8, just under what it was at its highest 3 months ago. So it seems this lab result is much more accurate than the last 2, which showed the creatinine falling pretty dramatically. The doc says it did that because of the drugs he was switching me on and off of... He was also worried about the fact that I'd lost 3 pounds (I mean, seriously 3 WHOLE POUNDS BIG WHOOP) since last month. I told him I just thought it was because I've been moving and doing alot more physical exercise than my usual lazy ass does. He made a big deal out of it though, so next time I guess I'll have to remember to eat a huge 5 course dinner right before going to see him and being weighed... humph. So, back to the dialysis topic. He said it should be mid to end of January and February at the latest. I'm hoping for late February. I also found out that it is required, by law, for everyone starting dialysis to be omitted to the hospital for 2-3 days when first beginning treatment. I didn't know about that so I was really surprised. What a bummer, I hate being in the hospital.
