Move along, nothing to see here

I've been on the increased dose of Tolvaptan / Jynarque for the past week (up to 60/30 from 45/15) and I'm happy to admit...

It's been a non-event.

Water consumption has remained pretty much the same.

No real change in thirst.

One bathroom break per night.

Manageable.

I see my nephrologist in two weeks so depending on what she thinks, I may be moving up to the Big Leagues - 90/30 - soon.

And so it begins

At my last appointment, the nephrologist actually offered to give me a referral for transplant. And then a week later I got THIS in the mail from my insurance company. Crap! It's getting real now. If something like that doesn't take the wind out of your sails, I don't know what will. Granted I had let my doctor know a couple of months ago that I wanted to be screened and ready to go as soon as my eGFR hit 20. Did I think it would be this year? No. My estimates were three years from now. Yet the combination of the four point eGFR drop + the transplant referral leads me to believe that my DOCTOR believes I should hit 20 within the year. I don't think I'm going to be able to last until the artificial kidney comes out. :-(
