ohhh @Dec , @Darcy , @Maggie , @Smc , @Appleblossom , @Determined , @Sherry , @Adge , @Faith-and-Hope , @outlander , @greenpea , @Jacques ,
got home at 2-30pm totally aching after work
so I rang my kidney specialist
and he told me it is because of my uric acid which is high plus other things that are high
but he is happy and he tried to assure me that it is a good report of where i am now
( well , i real don`t want to see it when it gets worse ):smileysad:
as well as work , we cleaned mum`s house , had morning tea with mum
and she has annouced that she has "Dementia "

Did Mum say what lead her to reach that conclusion @Shaz51 ?
My mum tells me she is planning on going into a home after an event. This did happen once before and she changed her mind. In between this time and last time she did spend a fortnight in respite so will see what eventuates this time.

there is not much to be done with the uric acid and toxins in the body
because of the kidney filters are damaged , it mean that the toxins will go back into my body instead of the toilet
soo it will be the diaylsis in the future
I can only take paracetamol , nothing else
also to cut back on high purine foods and drink more water

Did Mum say what lead her to reach that conclusion ?
@Former-Member
I did not quiz her too much yet but she said that she is repeating stories
also starting to forgot why she walked in a room for , then goes back to her chair
with repeating stories, i know her sister ( my aunty would tell her ) if she is repeating herself , or saying wrong things
we had morning tea with mum when she told us but
mr shaz made light of it saying that he can`t remember things , and forget names straight away

A decent mattress does make a difference @Shaz51 hopefully Mum will get a good nights sleep.

We swapped the mattresses and she said she had a good sleep last night @Former-Member
She went to bed early and had to take half a tablets when she was awake to sleep again
