We've completed the first week of outpatient dialysis, and the creatinine is holding steady in the 4's. They will not discontinue dialysis until it is below 3 (normal is 1.7). They will be measuring on a weekly, rather than daily basis, because kidney function return is slow enough that they aren't expecting to see significant changes in less than a week. Shannan was doing much better with the dialysis Friday than the two earlier in the week, but they are pulling off less fluid now, which indicates we are continuing to see change. Her blood pressure is better now, though she is still on medications. Shannan is still supposed to take it extremely easy for another week.
Thank you for your continued prayers.
Tim
