The Story Part 5
The Story Part 5
From December 2006 to May 3008 is 17 months. During those 17 months the Drs said my kidney funtion had gone from about 40% to about 12%. Amazing how fast it changed in 17 months while your doing everything the medical people tell you to do compared to how it took 52 years to go from 100% to 40%. But even as recent as March and April of 2008, my Dr was telling me that dialysis was probably a year away,but I would need it eventually. There are several different types of dialysis,you can read more about it by following the link at the side over there——->
Anyways, to prepare for that eventuallity, I was told I needed to have surgery to create what they call vascular access and they what they call a fistula. That is what the first two pictures are from. I was told it would keep me out of work for two weeks. The operation was on May 23rd of 2008.
