Gosh, every time I come here there's new information. Thank you all so very much. I have an appointment with Dr. Singh today at 2:30pm (just me and him) and I want to talk to him. Max's last blood tests revealed that his potassium level is too high so I want to talk to Dr. Singh about that as well as Azodyl that Zippy mentioned. Thanks Zippy for the link to the CRF website. I have been there and yes, it's an amazing site.

Debbie: Many, many thanks for that information as well. Good to hear from you.

I know that he was previously diagnosed with IVDD - Inter Vertebral Disc Disease and I wonder if this is the cause of his weakness. At that same time Dr. Singh mentioned Spondylosis of the Lumbar L5 & L6 - but all this was about a year ago.
