Very bad news.


I got bad news today. It seems my kidney failure is irreversible and I will probably have to go on dialysis three times a week. The Doc said that once I am on it I will not come off it and they can’t consider a transplant because of my Mesothelioma.

I did have forebodings before the appointment and I guess this is the beginning of the end.

The Doc will do another blood test in two weeks and if my eGFR hasn’t improved, and he doesn’t think it will, he will start me on dialysis.

Sorry it is a short block, I am a bit in shock.
