Here we go again!

Hope everything turns out ok. I'm going through a second round of lupus nephritis myself and am being evaluated for a transplant in the next month. My creatinine is 3.9 right now. I take aranesp. Have you always taken procrit? Hope to chat with you online sometime....I can definitely relate to what you are going through right now.

(((((Judy))))) I'm so sorry to hear about your kidneys. Do you have any idea what the next step will be for you? Haji, I'm also very sorry to hear that you may have to get a transplant. Anything dealing with organ involvement is scary. You are both in my thoughts and prayers.

My doc decided after my last biopsy that there was too much scarring to aggrassively treat my kidneys anymore. Then, I had cerebritis which was aggressively treated and subsequently put my kidneys into remission. Now, i'm out again. So, we will just watch it and when it declines enough i'll be placed on dialysis and then a transplant list. My kidney function has been up and down for years! I'm just praying it goes back up again.


Haji, i'm sorry to hear of your news. You will be in my thought and prayers. I have taken procrit a good bit in the past. Keep me posted on your situation. God Bless you all, Judy

I went today for an ultra sound of my legs to rule out dvt, chest x ray and arterial blood gases (ouch!) I should hear tomorrow. I finally got my procrit in today and had a shot! yeah! Maybe that will help me start feeling better. Love you guys, Judy
