Things have been pretty good lately, well for the most part. I went to the Dr yesterday for a follow up. I asked why I am so dizzy he took my blood pressure and it is low 94/63 so he told me to eat salt on my meals. If it works I will try it for a little bit, nothing to lose.
I also asked him about the medicine my oncologist prescribed for my CT scan next week. He told me it was for my kidneys. I asked why as I hadn't had it before, he informed me that for the past couple months when they do my blood work my creatine levels have been high. What this means is my kidneys have been having a hard time functioning since the chemo. They are supposed to produce creatine but usually between 55 - 60, my levels are 90 - 100 not so good :( . I asked what I can do apparently not much just drink water it helps them to filter. So here's to trying to get my kidneys functioning better.
It is amazing how the chemo affects so many other things. Still working on feeling "normal" hoping it gets back to that soon enough.
Well take care, I go to see my oncologist tomorrow for a follow up. Then I have a CT scan next week on Nov 6th.
Happy Fall!
