8/18/2009

My appointment went well this morning. Despite predictions from the people at my dialysis center, at the Putnam County Ambulatory Care Center, giving me the idea that a fistula would not be inserted for at least a week the doctor gave a strong likelihood for the procedure being done tomorrow. Now it will likely take 1-3 months before it is ready to use, but it is a step towards getting the port removed from my chest. Hopefully I will not even need to use the fistula anytime soon, as I am excited about getting a new kidney quickly. The fistula could just serve as a good backup. It is always good to have an alternate plan in place.
I am hoping to do something with my friend Ashley on Sunday.
