Saw the Kidney Doctor

  I had an appointment with the kidney doctor today.  My oncologists office set it up, and told me the appointment was for 10:30 am.  I took the day off from school.  I get there, and was told my appointment was for 2:30 pm.  That made me mad, since I had training from 4-6 pm.

  I went back this afternoon.  I had blood drawn on Tuesday, and he hadn't received those results yet.  I do not know what my cretin level is currently.  Even back in June, it was slightly elevated.  My calcium level is high, over 12.  There is two kinds of vitamin D in your body, so he thinks the one kind will be high.  I am going to  have blood drawn tomorrow morning and will have a lot of things tested.  The theory is that my sarcoid is messing with my kidneys.  I am still dehydrated.  As of now, I will see him again the week of Thanksgiving.  He is going to talk to my oncologist and my lung doctor.
