I have blood tests done every two weeks (8 vials!) to monitor the Wegners, diabetes, anemia, inflammation, kidney function as well as a dozen other things and then doctors make the necessary adjustments to my meds according to the lab results.
This week, I've had a bit of a setback: experiencing edema, very high and very low blood sugars, not feeling well, fatigued and weak and nauseated.
My most recent labs showed an increase in inflammation and that my kidneys were struggling to filter out protein and iron. The nephrologist (kidney doctor) changed up some of my meds and I'm already seeing improvement with the edema.
I will have more labs done in two weeks and also see a couple doctors on the 18th - so will know more then.

Thinking of you constantly sis and praying for God's continued healing in your body. Keep up the good fight. God is your strength, your source, your anchor, your comforter, your healer.
I love you!!
