was kept overnight in hosp--

well i went into the er and they did urine it came back with blood and keytones and protein in it but i did not see any visible blood dr said it can only be seen under microscope my pee looked like apple juice--yuck= they proceeded with blood and found my potassium was 2.9 very low and my cbc was very abnormal so they admited me and ended up getting 4 bags of fluid and 4 bags of potassium--and was told that my kidneys were not functioning correctly? so i will know more after i see a urologist-and also they said i was basically starvating myself ---but i begged them to let me come home i just have to follow up with dr and urologist quiet often--

i know i really gotta do this because i defintly dont want to end up like that---i will keep u posted love ta girl

Missy-  I mean this with love-if this doesn't scare you into taking care of yourself & doing what you are suppose to, then nothing will! Use popsycles. drink your fluids, get your protien in- cause the path you are on now is totally distructive. We don't want you to end up hospitalized and on forced feeding,etc. so PLEASE do what you KNOW you need to do to get better.  You remain in my thoguths and prayers. (((gentle, healing hugs))) Ellen

This tool allows us to manage our diets.. not eliminate them... YOU have to drink and get your protien in to live.. I SWEAR the Drs have figured out the correct way to do this... If you cant handle the protien shakes.. drink milk and eat string cheese and refried beans dehydration causes sooo many ill side affects.. that is why we all say sip sip sip... Take good care of you.

Try thinking of doing this for your kids.  I remember you said you wanted to do this to be able to do more with your kids.  They need you around and healthy to be able to play and go do things.  I havent been thru this, but I do know that you have to push yourself.  You can do it!   Keep your chin up, you will get there.

yea i know----today im going try n drink alo****er ----and im going try and eat more today------ the dietician said i should drink 8 ounces a hour-seems hard but i think i can do it i aint got no choice cuz of my health--------i hate being in hospital---------

Hang in there Missy!!  I'm thinking of you!!!  Sam
