Nephrologist

Today Hazel went to the nephrologist (kidney specialist) for a follow up appointment. Her doctor is great but he comes at you with questions that makes your brain perk up and try to respond. I sat and pictured my brain grow two little arms and slap itself awake and sit up straight. Hazel did really well today. She broke 20 lbs, she went pee in the sample bag and they magically got her blood pressure on her arm. We have to go back and get a renal ultrasound to see if her nephrocalcinosis has gotten worse, stayed the same, or gotten better. The last thing we did was get blood drawn and she did really well. Now we wait for the results...
