It has been a down week for my kidney, and I am struggling with my energy all of a sudden.
Here are my latest labs:
06 Oct 21 Labs:
*Creat: 3.26
*HCT: 34.2 (-0.7) Low
*Hemo: 10.8 (-0.4) IR
*RBC: 3.77 (-0.15) Extremely Low
*WBC: 7.2 (+0.4) IR
*BUN: 45 (+1) Extremely High
*CA: 9.6 (NC) IR
*GFR: 20 (+2) Extremely Low
*Gluc: 108
*K+: 3.9 (NC) IR
*NA+: 139 (NC) IR
*Phos: 3.7 (-0.5) IR
*PTH (Parathyroid Hormone): 105 (High)
NC= No Change IR= In Range
Aside from dips in my Red Count and Hematocrit, these labs are fairly stable.
However, despite the stability, I had a definite downturn in my energy this week. My body has struggled recovering from my workouts, I am feeling physically and mentally drained so much that I am having to push myself to get anything done from day to day. I am hoping this is nothing more than a brief lull, and that I will be able to rebound once more.
I have my Colonoscopy this coming Wednesday. Because I am a transplant patient, I must have a Covid Test, which I will do tomorrow. I start the oh so lovely test prep on Monday evening, and cannot eat anything of substance all day Tuesday. Clear liquid diets are just the best! :o( I will post the results of the test later next week.
I think I'll stop there for today.
I just finished my exercise, and I am tired!
Good Health to All!

Update: 12 Oct 21: My Covid test came back negative, so there won't be any issues with tomorrow's Colonoscopy. sw
