Fibrillary glomerulonephritis

I guess what I'm wondering is.. is there really no cure. And the doctor at the Mayo clinic in Scottsdale actually recommended I get the bone marrow biopsy. My nephrologist here said there's no need because the blood stains they did or whatever they are called were good. But I told her could we just rule it out. So waiting to hear if my insurance will help cover. Stressed. Also I'm getting laid off. So then I lose my insurance. Don't I qualify for some sort of government aid? I really don't know what to do.

I am so sorry...it is very expensive.
My diet struggle revolves primarily around tomato based foods which I can no longer have. My winter diet...stew, chili, etc. If you are a big tomato fan, Google nomato sauce. I made it last week and it seems to be a great replacement. No tomatos and pretty healthy.

@vhussey29 Thanks for the tip! Any idea how much phosphorus and potassium per serving in a standard recipe? I could look up my values for carrots, a beet, the onion, etc. and add it together then divide by # servings but I'm lazy.

I have been given pages of "what to choose everyday" and what to stay away from..
This info includes all the food groups and is based on 1/2 cup servings and types and amounts (by weight) of protein daily.
Honestly, I was never taught or even told to calculate phosphorus or potassium...

@jennifer208 Dang, that is a lot of stress to deal with, which you definitely do not need right now, right? Not knowing your age range, nor state, have you checked in to insurance coverage for your state? Be honest with your doctors. If you are being laid off, is your company offering you continuation coverage on their insurance? Called COBRA, you would be responsible for for the whole premium, usually for no more than 180 days, so i would check with the HR Dept.

Thank you so much. It's so dang depressing

@jennifer208 would you qualify for insurance through the ACA? My daughter used to be a freelancer and was insured that way.

Just wanted to check in. My consult appointment is Friday with the hematologist. I will let you all know when the bone marrow biopsy is.
