Everything is fine with my kidney function. The trace of protein was caused by my body producing more yeast in response to a change in my birth control pills. It is not enough yeast for an actual yeast infection but I am going to change birth control pills back to my old ones.
Greg's creatinine is 1.8 for the day. His BUN was a little high but nothing major. His blood glucose level is 101 and he no longer has to take insulin shots. His sugar was high as a reaction to his prednisone, Prograf and Cellcept medications. They were causing it to go from one extreme to another so he briefly had to take insulin shots to get it under control. He will now be taking a pill to keep it regulated while taking all the anti-rejection meds.

My Story
I recently became a living donor. On January 18, 2008, I donated one of my kidneys and wanted to be able to share the experience with anyone interested. I had many questions leading up to our surgery and would like to help anyone out there who may be thinking about the process. While only you can decide if live donation is for you, I will gladly answer questions pertaining to my experience. This blog is my way to increase knowledge of kidney disease and to share my experience as a living donor.
