First Clinic visit

Relieved!!!!!  That is how I feel after our first visit.  Dr Filler has some concerns about her Blood Pressure still being a little high so he has prescribed one more med. for Breanna to take.  Breanna is holding in water so she is a bit bloated all over.  Not to concerned just making some minor adjustments. Limit fluid intake to 2 litres a day.  We have to  watch her suger levels as they are starting to go up,  She is still in the normal range but it is climbing.  And her sodium level is higher then we would like so we know we have to watch her sodium intake.  We have known this from the beginning.  We will be back in two weeks for another clinic visit and she has another test,  I forget what it is called at the mment but it is to see which valve is not working properly in her baldder causing the Bladder Reflux.  That will not be a fun test.  But she will get through.
Tonight we have increased her Dialysis fluid so that more fluid will come off.  Hopefully this helps.  But she had a great night.  No Crying at all.  Just a small,  oh it hurts mom.   She is sound asleep which is where I should be.  Goodnight.  Tired today!

  1. Sounds like great news Stef! Just a bit of altering her diet and she will have even better results on the next appointment. It's good to hear that her pain has decreased also. That's a great sign!
