As I have said the Gastro Bypass has done its part, I am now 180 # from 340 # this time last year! High blood pressure gone, a 400 cholesterol now 150, 21 years Diabetes gone, all meds gone! Doc says great!!
But the diabetes is still killing me off! My eyes had bleeds and they were stopped with lazer treatments over the years. But that caused a lot of scaring which caused detached retinas, so they fixed them over the last year, but that causes cataracts, so I have had one fixed but still waiting on the other. Not as good result as Doc wanted but it is still much better!
I an still having problems with my blood pressure dropping when I stand, which made me fall on the dock the other day.
Thats being treated but its not much better, Doc says that it should burn its self out and get better with time?? I getting sick of waiting!
The last thing is Kidneys they are at about 18% and Doc is sending me to Boston June for blood typing and other stuff to add my name to the kidney transplant list. He says I am close to needing Dialysis but not yet. I have had my veins mapped out already so they are ready to put ports in my arm when ready.
I have a brother that has said he will donate a kidney to me, but we have to get all the testing done to see if we are a match?
So all this has kept me from posting as much as use to, and not sure how much fishing I will do again this year? But I am trying!
I am also driving CB nuts calling him all the time to talk! He is one guy I have meet thur the internet, that is a true friend! And I appreciate very very much! Just incase I never said it to you CB !!
Ok I have rambled on long enough!! Thanks for listing guys!
