Yes, I am keeping track.All I really need to do is download all my conversations in my chart. Should I call the facility I am going to and tell them my Kidneys are having trouble? They are unaware, and I know my Primary did not discuss this with them. I am having my lungs imaged and my esophagus.When it was scheduled, I did not know as of yet of my declining eGRF. My appt. is on Monday. As you can see, my Doctors are not pro active. I do not want the CT scan IF it will damage my kidneys further, no way. I am not risking that. I monitor my BP at home every day, several times a day. Right now it is 131/72 pulse 80. I have a oximeter at home (You put your finger in it) and my oxygen is 100. My temp is 97.6, which is normal for me. I find it very important to monitor my vitals. Oh, I should mention I am a white 62 year old women and average in weight. I exercise every day, 1/2 hr. on the treadmill, then 20 minutes of squats, stretching, and then 20 min Irish dancing ( I am not trained, but do the steps for cardiovascular. All this working out and I feel like crap and worried if I have something terminal. How sad is that. I am a smoker, but have cut down and will be picking up my smoking cessation gum at the Pharmacy tomorrow. I am trying very hard.
