@rosemarya, feeling quite well and energetic though I have no idea what my next labs will say.

Bioengineering kidney tissue or an entire kidney will be in the near future, though probably not near enough for some of us. I'm still looking at eventual dialysis but am trying to postpone it as long as possible with proper diet, rest, appropriate fluids.

Neph wants me to have an AV graft sooner rather than later, 2nd opinion neph disagrees, so far nobody has decided anything. Or if they have they forgot to tell me.

Getting info from my neph is like pulling teeth. Sometimes I wait a couple of weeks for a less-than-satisfactory partial answer. Since I cannot travel and have few insurance options, my current neph is basically the only one I can access. It's a bummer but I'm coping.

Currently working on diabetic and kidney friendly Native American ingredients recipe collection and having lots of fun. "Cooking Cherokee" literally is in my DNA, I just have eliminated all meat from my diet and from the recipes. Other than that, they're authentic.

How are YOU?
