6 days off

Hi. I know I have to work on my post titles, I honestly do not know how to name it. Anyway, I have been sick since Monday, I think or sometimes after my last post. I have had fever, my throat hurt and then when I was feeling a little better my lips got swollen and we had to rush to the hospital cause we did not know what to do. We waited for almost 4 hours until a doctor was able to see me. I was given anti histamine and it did help. No one knew if it was from the food or drink I had earlier that night or one of my medication but they replaced one of my pills anyway cause it was one of the side effects which is called "Angioedema". I went to see my see the next day and she said it was very good that I went to the hospital right away and for the doctor to switch my pills as if the second, third or fourth angioedema attack will happen, it will be very bad. So yeah, that is about it. 

 Other than that, I think one big event that is going to happen or will happen (depending how things go) is that I might have a kidney transplant soon. We still have to find my match and donor but I am not ready for it. I do not even want to think of it. I am scared, very scared. So, I do not know. 

 I will try to keep you posted though about everything. 😊

Last time I wrote was 8 March 2020, almost a year now. So many things happened. Covid happened, I stopped working, my husband stopped school. And on July 2020, I started dialysis. Prior to his, I had surgeries, minor ones. I was scheduled for a surgery for a fistula. Screenshot of what my fistula is attached below. I have it on my left arm. On the day of my surgery, they had to add a vas cath as my kidney function is only on 8%, a brief explanation from google is attached below as well. Two days after, my Nephrologist called me to head to the dialysis unit as I need a session for an hour and a half as my kidney function is only 6%, just two days after. FISTULA Vas Cath Anyway, from then on, I had to do dialysis three times a week. Started from an hour and a half then two hours then three hours then four hours. So as of February 2021, I still have to do dialysis three times a week for four hours. Fortunately, I have the best Nephrologist in Canberra, he was able to move mountains to be ...

Well, obviously this is my first post. I have been thinking of creating a new blog for a little while now. I used to have one but it was from my teenage years and it was full of crap (hehe). So, I decided to make a new one and to be honest, having a blog helped me a lot by being able to share what I feel comfortably and not worry about other people. I prefer this than having a vlog. See, I do not have a good face and voice. Anyway, I am excited to share what has happened and what is happening with my life. I hope I can get some advise if needed and stuff. And here we go....
