Wow, you are all wonderful, we like to think it gives hope to those of you who are waiting.
Phils now been transplanted for a month and things are running really smoothly his creatinine level pre dialysis was 800 - 900 it's now.....wait for it...........126!! Incredible huh? His pancreas is also tip top and he's munching his way though a couple of chocolate a day...why? Because he can!! no more insulin etc....still being monitored twice a week at the moment but that will drop to once a week soon.
I don't mind his chocolate munches except it starts me off hehehe and he needs the weight gain lmao I don't!!
Any hoo if anyone needs to ask questions etc...please please do.
