Ok, gonna try this again. I'm having problems w/this program. Anyhow...
The subQ treatments are usually no big deal; they're simply a drip of Ringer's lactate under the skin w/a thick gauge needle so that the procedure goes quickly, usually in 5 min. But since her surgery, she's cried and trembled and tried to jump off the table every time. When she was first diagnosed w/CRF, she had to have them twice a day, then once a day, then every other day, etc. until she was down to once a week. But now she's back to every day until we see how her remaining kidney will function.
She finally did calm down today but pilling her was a real treat.She has yet to get her subQ treatment today but I'll deal w/it. If she can take it, I can, too. She goes to have her sutures removed on Wed. and I hope Dr. Lee comes out of it w/all his digits.
And I'm hoping he'll tell me that the nervous tic is from all the meds, which she should be done w/soon.
Blessings,
Mary
