Hi Hank, Thanks so much for your feedback, I'll be sure to follow the leads you've suggested. As I'm sure both you and your wife understand, it is rare to reach out and get answers and even more rare to find others who are supportive and empathetic as well, so I thank you for this as well.
My best regards, Nan

Nan, since you can not tolerate much in the way of prescribed medications for your pain dues to your kidney disease, I am wondering if you have tried using cbd oil? Some people get relief from it. Linda, my wife, was not one of those lucky people but she does use other cannabinoids. Do you happen to live in a state where medical marijuana is legal? The might be another thing to try, assuming it does not interact with your illness in a negative way.

I think you are wise to continue to do physical work, even in as limited a way as you must due to the impairment from your illnesses. Whatever you can do, even if its just a small amount each day, will stand you in very good stead as you move forward. I admire your spirit in continuing to strive to continue to live your life. Hats off to you.

Best, Hank
