Hi hello1234, no underwriting policy at all, or medical qx. what I was told I am paying a little more b/c I am immunosuppressed and of course had a LTP but when I turn 65 it will be better now if you have had a kidney it’s different b/c they acknowledge it a little better. why!! but it is what it is.
You made my day about the kidney encouragement, yes low protein , I drink enough to keep me hydrated or I blow up. I am really taking care of myself no hbp, heart disease but I am pre diabetic watching that closely.
I am on 3/2 prograf a day 2000 celcept a day. These meds save our lives but do a number on our bodies. Don’t get me wrong I am still grateful💚 I hope this helps out.

Hi @myfablife 😊
It sounds like you are doing everything humanly possible to keep your kidney function stable. That is great!
Your monthly labs will keep an eye on your kidney function for you, and I am very hopeful that your kidney numbers will continue to hold and maintain at this level.
Change of subject....Do you take any medication like Pepcid or Protonix to protect your stomach? (I think I may try Pepcid to see if that keeps the acid feeling away).
