This has been a rough week. Everything was weird because dialysis was bumped around so I had Tues and wed through the week off to do my thing so I spent both days snugging with Loki and by mid afternoon of second day full on allergic reaction. When I went to dialysis the next day they had to give me oxygen to help me out and instead of taking fluid off they gave me some which helped a lot ...then I could actually start eating and drinking again because I was actually quite dehydrated and couldn't eat anything but crackers and drink water (which wouldn't stay down). By the next dialysis day I just had a cough and got some lozenges which helped too and another 2 days off basically had me trying to eat, drink, rest, and hope for better days! I haven't had a cold in YEARS! I've been excellent at keeping them at bay but apparently when you spiral down and out of control everything goes to shit!! Still here. Breathing!

New Changes
So...I added more fluid after last clinic (but still just 2 bags at 4 cycles) and then after new clinic it seemed to be working but since my bloodwork I am having some issues. Monday I start a new bag of something or other that will be inside until i hook up at night again (and will drain then) and hopefully it will help.
Not having functioning kidneys anymore makes things more difficult. In addition my potassium is still low so I'm starting a potassium pill in a day or two and my iron is low so I have to take a shot every 5 days instead of once a week and in Dec I will be going to have an iron infusion to help this situation...so I'm a bit stressed but I'm just trying to breath and figure it out.
I'm not working, creating or Christmasing at all today...just reading comp and thinking about what it would feel like to be warm! lol (soooo cold!! I hate winter time!!)
