Wednesday, August 17, 2011. Life Insurance Premium Increased. Even though the exam showed that my kidneys were functioning well within normal my insurance premium was still increased by 400% above the rate I was originally quoted based on my age, nonsmoker, etc. Yes, that 400%.

Thursday, November 27, 2008. What I am Thankful For - Happy Thanksgiving! Hello and Happy Thanksgiving! With the Turkey in the oven and a few quiet moments in my house before the family rush, I actually had a moment to update my blog. I decided to start out with what I am thankful for this since it is "Thanksgiving.". I told him that while he was physically healed, I was not emotionally healed and to give me a little more time. Understanding, amazing, and supportive. December 16, 2008 at 3:27 PM. I would...

Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Annual Check Up 2010. I finally took care of the lab work and ultrasounds that I had been carrying around since June 2009, and then met with my nephrologist, Dr. Helms, in January 2010. (Ok, 6 months is not great, but at least I finally got it all done.). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Me with my family. My journey in learning about and living with Polycystic Kidney Disease.

Friday, March 14, 2008. Doctor Appointment for Margaret. Dr Williams was actually far better this visit than he was last time. He seemed genuinely irritated that the other doctor had not arranged to see me, and he ran all the lab work I wanted done himself. He also arranged for an EKG, a bone density test, a kidney ultrasound, and a mammogram to be done first thing Monday morning so keep your fingers crossed that all is ok. Wednesday, March 12, 2008. PKD and Tuberous Sclerosis. For the reasons outlined a...

Wednesday, May 21, 2008. Behind on Blogging…. After losing my job in January, my focus became a little more widespread. i.e., I am going in too many different directions at once. Attending classes at the local JC, working as an on call temp for the local school district, applying for permanent employment on a daily basis, and keeping up with my husband and two kids (all with various health issues). Yikes! Anyway, the results from my March Dr. appointment were normal with no major surprises.

Wednesday, December 26, 2007. Telling Your Friends and Family. I guess I will be making several telephone calls now to explain the situation, and then leave it up to them to decide how they want to handle it and if they want to follow-up with their own doctors. Friday, December 21, 2007. Stress and That Little Nagging Side Pain. In the meantime, I guess I will add it to my list of questions to ask my doctor at my visit next month. Tuesday, December 11, 2007. Dr B reviewed some of the new medical trials i...

Thursday, June 12, 2008. PKD with cysts on the Ovary and Birth Control Options. Amanda has been experiencing several problems with her menstrual cycles including extreme cramping, back pain, heavy flow, and irregular cycles. (Some cycles are barely 2 weeks apart.). The Gynecologist suggested a form of birth control that she felt was the safest for patients with a kidney disease, low dose, less likely to increase her blood pressure, so we will how that works out. Amanda is not thrilled about taking anothe...
