My Kidney is doing GREAT!
« on: April 08, 2014, 08:47:25 AM »
My recipient is in the hospital due to non-kidney related illness. I went to see him at lunchtime, yesterday, fortunately the hospital is only a couple blocks from my office. His nephrologist arrived shortly after I did. I was introduced as the donor. The doctor just raved about how wonderful a job the kidney was doing. He said that the creatinine levels are 1.1.  Which, due to the gender & size mismatch, they would expect it to be 1.5. So, its doing better than expected! That was wonderful to hear!!
