@jennifer208, I am glad to know that you have access to Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale in just 5 days. A longer wait than that would be troubling, in my opinion. I don't have personal experience or special knowledge about glomerulonephritis, but my best friend in college had the disease, and we sort of dealt with it together. That was 65 years ago, though, and I assume medical science has a lot of new therapies for dealing with your disease. Be assured that you're hooked up with the best medical specialists in the nation, and they will ask you to give them your full attention and support in addressing this malady.
