The kidney specialist put me on a 2 Gram Sodium diet which is 2000 mg a day and does that go fast!!! Every thing on earth as salt in it!! But I am following it!!

More Health issues!

I had my labs this morning and I was having a hard time breathing so I asked them to check my oxygen level and it was low! The nurse said I needed to see the Dr. and he ordered a chest ex-ray and it showed that I have fluid on my lungs.

He gave me a prescription for some kind of pills which Kelly will pick up this afternoon. Then I will know what kind of pills I am taking.

My kidney specialist is suppose to call this afternoon about the swelling in my feet.

I have to have a echo cardiogram the last of the week to be sure my heart is OK.

I sure am Thankful for all your prayers and your concern for me!! And putting me on your prayer list at your church!! You will never know how much this means to me!! I tear up just thinking about how much you all care about each other.

I am just going through a bad time now, but I will get well!!!

Needing More Prayer!!

It is snowing here today! Not a lot but enough to feel like Christmas!

Well, since I wrote my last post things got hard!! I don't think I told you all that the kidney specialist told me to drink more water.

SO I did!! Oh My!! Each evening my feet were a little more swollen until Friday night and they were so swollen that in a couple places they cracked and bled. Not good! Karen and Kelly cleaned them up and propped them up with pillows.

I called my Doctor and they told me he said to call the kidney specialist. The Kidney special is out of his office until Monday morning.

I have labs this week so Please keep praying that the creatine will go down! THANKS!! IF they don't that means you have permanent kidney damage and will have to be on dialysis in time.

I have one more deal..... My body must be making insulin! This week my blood sugar has fell to 40 twice and the worst was the night before Thanksgiving when it dropped to 31 and everything was going dark. My Doctor has decreased my insulin but it is still falling but not as bad.

I hate to make this into a medical post but I need your prayers so much!! I must get well!!

I was able to go and visit some of you a little on Wednesday but I had to stop because of the swelling in my feet.

So I need to get well for many reasons but one reason IS I love to blog!!

Good News on Friday!

Hello!! Well it is Friday and I see the family or me have been posting every Friday since I have been sick. I am feeling so much better! I was at the Dr's office on Tuesday and my blood pressure was better but my creatine are still not were the Dr. wants them. I see the kidney specialist next week. But I am so much better!!

Maybe really soon I can get out and visit and leave some comments!! Boy, oh Boy have I ever missed you!!!



But as Hootin Anni told me in no uncertain terms MY Health comes first!!! So this time I didn't want a set back.

Thank you SO very much for your prayers for me!! And for all the lovely comments! How can I ever thank you for all this concern and caring!!!
I have been in for so long there isn't a lot of news about my family! Well,as I think about it Karen flew down and visited her friends in Austin, TX. last weekend and had a really good time! They went to Houston on Thursday and San Antonio on Saturday and saw the River Walk.
She brought me back the cutest Ginger Bread Boy who is a Texas Cowboy!!
Nancy loved her tee shirt from the Alamo!

Hello All My Sweet Blogging Friends!
