IN CONTROL

I now as a kidney is getting use to the life my food intake and fluid control it takes all of my will power to curb my desires but now i seem to be winning the battle. I have decided to cook more often and with me not putting in ant salt in my food i am able to control my thirst. The food i cook is not delicious and very bland i try to spice up the dishes with the addition of more chillies but still the food i cook can only be eaten by me.

Inbetween dialysis i am only suppose to gain a maximum of 2,5kg the last dialysis i only gain 1.9kg but this is a long battle and i must keep at it and this process last forever until i expire. I am still addicted to drinking water but since i cut down on my salt or sodium intake the thirst is not so unbearable.

I am now in hospital waiting for my fistula or graft operation. A surgeon creates an AV fistula b y connecting an artery directly to a vein. I am in singapore genral hospital or SGH.

SGH is singapore premier hospital and is almost running at full capacity. SGH is very proffesionally run with many set procudures and rules and bending of the rules is not tolerated. Even before you allowed to be warded even if a doctor has sign off you will have to prove to the hospital that you are able to afford treatment. WISH ME LUCK MY OPERSATION IS THE MORNING OF 14 OF OCT 2010
