How is Furball doing on the new dose?Nice to see a yellow start for Yoyo. I hope he slides down and surfs today.
It's hard to tell on the days I work and she is being bouncy, but I think she is at least getting to blue during the day.How is Furball doing on the new dose?
A little better on the numbers today!!!! Progress. Paws crossed tomorrow will bring green.
Any word on Amori?
Oh boy am I crazy! For some reason, I just want to call her Amori!!!!Hey I like the name Amori...cute! Thank you for asking.....today, late in the afternoon-more like early evening the nurse from the cardiologist office called with the results for Adori. Thank G-d her blood work is pretty stable.
She is labeled stage two chronic kidney disease, (type II cardiorenal syndrome), that is what is written in her report. Her creatine level is 1.6 where the high norm is 1.5. And her creatine kinase is high at 313, where the high norm is 200. Creatine kinase is an enzyme that leaks out of damaged muscle. It's muscle being destroyed, so I believe it is her heart muscle that is causing the elevation.
Her heart muscle is still very much stretched and that is measured by a test called proBNP and that number is high at 2995, norm high is 900...ouch!
But I have to remember that these are all numbers that can change daily. The most important thing is that she is acting fine.
I'm going to start and introduce renal support food so that hopefully it can help with the kidney functions.
Yo did very nice today on the human BG meter. But I guess all those greens caused a bounce tonight.
Well at least I can go to sleep soon, but I will check him during the night.
Sleep tight.....![]()
