I've only been back on my injections for 4 weeks and I've been super careful about watching my calories and watching my weight and my sleep hasn't been that bad either. Its just frustrating at age 29 to have this stuff going on. I don't have a date yet for the procedure, the office has to call. I also see my kidney doctor on Monday. I'm not sure what he'll want. Hopefully not another 24 hour urine collection. Thats a hassle. These whole health issues are a hassle. Again, I'm only 29 with no weight issues or diabetes or anything. I keep thinking of what sick kids are going through who miss their entire childhood because of illnesses.

I’d just turned 30, was playing sport regularly, was healthy with no diabetes or blood pressure problems or any other problems except mental health of course and ended up in hospital with life threatening medical issues that I didn’t have any risk factors for. I will have to be treated for this for the rest of my life and it can come back at any time and can kill me. Age and weight etc has nothing to do with it. Sometimes things just happen. A friend of mines sister died from lung cancer in her 40s and she’d never smoked a cigarette in her life. We can just be (very) unlucky.
