Just an update.

The new diet seems to be helping. The pain in my kidneys have gone and I feel better physically. I still have bone pain that keeps me up at night and muscle fatigue. I am also getting into the hot season when I start getting nauseas easily. But over all I am doing ok. I am not as depressed as I was a couple of weeks ago. And it is only about 65 days till I go back to the NIH!!!!

What the hell... another new diet

OK so I have been on this new diet the doctor 'suggested' for a couple of weeks. I do feel better physically but I am struggling. I am on a low phosphate diet. I know I said huh when I heard it to. Well come to find out when phosphate is high calcium is low in your blood and vise versa. So I had high phosphate which was causing my blood calcium to drop, in return I would need to take more calcium leading to more calcium damage. So I have had to stop Coke( the drink) and those of you that Know me know that is a stretch. I also have to limit my meat, seafood, poultry, etc to 5oz a day! And I have to eat refined white bread, rice, noodle. and no asparagus, mushroom, corn...all my favorite veggies. But I do get cucumbers and fresh tomatoes! I really hope that the new medication in August helps me as much as they say it will.
Well that's all the ranting I have for today.
