A1c, Doctor Appointment, kidney failure, Lab Result

I had my lab work done for my simi annual check up last Monday. The results are in. There were at least thirty tests performed on the blood work but there are only two that really concern me, Creatinine levels and A1c.

After many years of my A1c being 10+ or higher and 7.2 the lowest, I’m very pleased to announce that my A1c is down to 5.5. According to this report, I’m not even prediabetic any more. I’ll let the doctors decide when I see him on Monday.

My Creatinine levels are still dropping. My last labs from my oncologist three months ago showed my Creatinine was at 1.78. Today’s results showed them to be at 1.52. Still in class 3a kidney failure but it’s getting better.

Patience is Not One of my Virtues!!

I called my oncologist twice yesterday and didn’t hear a word from him.  I know Monday’s is his busy days so I didn’t get too upset but when he didn’t call me back first thing this morning I decided to give his office a call again.  I again left word with his receptionist and waited for his phone call.  He finally called me back about an hour later and after I told him what I wanted and why I was calling he sounded offended that I would question his earlier report.   Anyway, the information that is posted on the website is wrong.  The correct result is 0.0001% which is the lowest it’s ever been since my diagnoses.  The website has it listed as 1.0%, which is quite a bit different.
