Health Update
Well, I'm not pleased to report that my health seems to be rapidly deteriorating. I've got some labs scheduled and I'm pretty sure I know what they're gonna show. What I already know. That I'm spilling protein and that's not a good thing. Proteinuria it's called and it means my kidneys aren't doing what they're supposed to be doing. I believe I may be in Stage 5 Kidney Failure and without a transplant or dialysis I will die. So it'll be because I'm not down for that shit 3 times a week for 4 hours. I've been on that before and it's no fun. Stage 5 means the beans are only operating at 15% or so. The issue I'm facing is all the damage to the glomerulus. Of course I only understand a little bit because I've read up on it but I know my symptoms and what I've read. And studied. A transplant probably won't happen because of the condition of my liver. That being NASH, which is disqualifying as far as I know. And I am morbidly obese as well so that's a second disqualifier. The only hope I have is to go overseas somewhere but that's a fucking delusion because I dont have that kind of cash. So I'm done for soon folks. I know some people live up to 20 years on dialysis in Stage 5 but I think I'll opt not to undergo dialysis. Eventually, my electrolytes will be so out of whack that I'll just fall asleep and not wake up. I'm coming to grips with the approaching end so no worries. I've lived a full life and will be ready to go when the time arrives. Until then, I'ma try and get as much out of my live days as I can including growing my first full up garden. That is all. Ciao.
