Not responding as hoped

Jan 18, 2010 20:03

After a week of dialysis it's not looking like it's going to repsond. I still produce urine and everything but I'm not filtering everything out as I should be. So a new kidney is looking inevitable. Luckily I had two matches going in the first time and my second match is ready to donate. We have to be re-evaluated but unless my aunt has some serious health issues I don't see where there will be a problem. My doctor said we'll start the process in March, until then I continue dialysis treatment three times a week. I'm guessing they're giving me some time to recuperate from my hospital visit, they beat me up good. I've got bruises on 70% of my body, they're fading away now but still very noticeable. My mom took me to get my hair cut today and the lady cutting my hair thought I was in a car accident. If that were only it. I'm still kind of weak too, I get tired easily, especially after dialysis treatments. But at least they're getting better, I no longer get sick to my stomach. I do get cold but that's apparently normal. I need to hire a friend to come hang out with me during the day. Eventually I'm going to start staying home alone again, I don't know how I feel about that...
