Bev, Are you from England? There ate other group members from there that may be able to recommend doctors etc. You can see if there were any highly recommended ones by going to the website. You need to go in were it says"database". You will find a lot of what you need there. I am finally myself just on track and going to the correct doctors. I will attach my story. If you would like to talk to others, read there resonses on the website, and respond. If you have questions, go to the website, and post, and then send. It will come up on the web for people to reply to your specific questions. As for the doctor, be strong from the start! I was not, and should have left my regular OB months ago. ASK HOW MANY CASES LIKE THIS THEY HAVE SEEN. IF THEY ANSWER A LOW NUMBER, DO NOT LET THEM TREAT YOU, BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT GET IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME. THIS IS WHY WE ARE ALL HERE! Feel free to ask me anything you would like,

Kunin’s Story (As of 6/15/02)

I was 8 weeks pregnant and miscarried on January 2nd. Immediately afterwards, I had a d and c. After 11 weeks, my period did not resume. I took the progesterone challenge, and failed. I then took the estrogen and progesterone challenge, and failed this too. My doctor scheduled me for a diagnostic hysteroscopy in his office. It was painful, and unsuccessful. He could not get the necessary instruments past my cervix. I was then scheduled for a surgical hysteroscopy on May 23rd. I had a thick layer of scar tissue covering my cervix that was removed. Unfortunately, during surgery, my uterus was punctured. I am hearing that this is common even with A list doctors. My lining in my uterus is thicker. Last checked, I was at 5mm, from under 4mm. I am currently on my last day of estrogen. I took 1.25mg for 21 days. I am seeing a local RE in Stamford, CT on the 23rd of June, and will see an A list RE on the 3rd of July in NYC. I will update with new information, as I get it.

K,

In the files section "our stories" we have started a folder to add our stories so that if a member wants to read up on someone's story, they can be referred to this section. This will help all members not repeat their story again and again.

After I read your story, I was wondering if you could add the story you just sent to us? Would that be possible? Also, this applies to all members who would like to add their stories to this section.

Hi y,

Those are just fantastic results! That would indicate you are at about 74%

kidney function. My clearance is running in the low 20s, and I have still not

yet started dialysis. Your protein level also not too bad. They start to

get worried if it is over 3 grams a day, and my Neph doesn't panic until I get

over 6 grams a day so you are in good shape.

The most important thing for you is to make sure you keep your blood pressure

in check, and please do not let IgAN define your life. It is only a small

part of what you have, it is not who you are. Live each day to the fullest

extent possible, and don't forget to count your blessings every day :-)

I think that if you have to have IgAN, you are in great shape as far as where

your lab results are. I just pray they stay stable where they are for many

many years.

Hi y,

Just so you know, this is still a very positive result. You have 74

function and that is great, even with a protein spill at 0.4 which is at

the very manageable stage. I kind of got a little chuckle about your world

being kidney, kidney, kidneys! I think that everyone here can identify with

those feelings. No matter where you're at in the kidney disease process,

when the diagnosis comes, it can consume a lot of your daily thoughts. Read

what you can, keep yourself informed, maintain a positive attitude and you

will be able to emotionally cope with this disease. Many of us here are in

the 25 year club! (meaning still no dialysis after 25+ years)

Here's hoping that your function will remain at 74% for many years to come

and that we will be able to induct you into our club someday!

Connie

Hello

Hello all,

Well, I got a urine test back today and it was like this: Clearance

74 Proteinuria: 0.4 grams Is this okay?

It's amazing how different my life has become since diagnosis. I

find myself thinking about kidneys ALL the time, and obsessing over

my diet. I, sadly enough, even will pass a person on the street and

think " I wonder what their creatinine is? " ...My world is all KIDNEY

KIDNEY KIDNEYS! Besides my son, that is :) Oh and that little

thing called work.

Anyways, just wondering what the labs mean. Hope everyone had a

good weekend and is feeling well, thank you.

y,

I think all of go through that. At least for the first few

months, kidneys were a dinner conversation topic every night. It's gotten

better now, even though I feel like, right now, I'm living from doctor's

appointment to doctor's appointment, anxious to know if anything has

changed. But, when the next appointment is still 2 weeks away, I just have

to suck it up and deal with it. I THINK your labs sound o.k. I'm not sure

about the creatinine, but the proteinuria isn't bad at all.

Hello !

With all that is happening in your life, to take the time and notice my

little " ya'll " slip, I had to giggle. I've been in Texas for the last 10 or

11 years. My dad was in the military so we traveled a lot. I've always had

the bad habit of picking up different accents in each place we lived.

I am praying right along with you as you go on your job hunt. I've always

believed that God will not give us any more than we can handle. My husband
