His doctor now has him on a 3 month follow up - I'm guessing he will do blood tests each time. He hasn't had him do a urine test so maybe I should suggest it. I have been doing the home dipstick test every so often. Each time show Specific Gravity at highest level. Some of the others are at either normal or lower or trace levels and hard for me to read (they don't match strip colors!). He has fun having me do his blood pressure, oxygen level and Kardia each day.
