Title: Any questions I should ask during my 6 month follow-up Visit?
Post by: Mizchelle on September 18, 2013, 10:32:57 AM

Just wondering if there are any questions that come to mind that you might have asked during your 6 month or yearly follow-up visit.

Ironically so, my Mom will be undergoing a kidney biopsy just hours before my follow-up visit. ... Should probably mention that when they check my blood pressure, huh?

Dear Mizchelle,

I'd ask them to check vit d and b levels.  Find out what your creatinine was pre-donation, post-surgical and now so you have numbers when you go to your own dr's (they get concerned when it is high).  In fact make sure they send you the full actual results from your workup.

Hope your Mom is ok.
