Endocrinologist Appointment

I saw the Endocrinologist this morning. The appointment ent well. He has determined that the tumor on my adrenal gland is benign still. He also said that the 3 nodules on my thyroid are small enough to leave alone at this point. They are under 1.5 centimeters which is where the recommendations for biopsies are started. I will go back for a follow-up in 6 months. He also wants me to take additinal Vitamin D. He wants 400 units a day. The only size I could find was for 1000 units. I hope that this won't be too much. He also wants me to limit oxalates in my diet which can add to kidney stones since I already have kidney disease. He gave me a list of food items I should avoid. I'm a little confused, because I am not really eating those foods. The only ne there I saw seemed to be the protein shakes. I'll need to contact him to ask about that. Of course, he pushed more water daily. He also wants me to keep walking. So- all in all I think the appointment went well. I feel relieved. Aime

That's Good News!! congrats!!

I'm in trouble if protein shakes are the underlying cause of my kidney stone problem!!! Dr S wants me drinking 2 shakes/day forever Hugs, Mo

Congrats on the good news!!!!!!!!

Aime sweetie what a relief to hear that all is well with you. As for kedney disease every dr says you have to stay away from protein shakes and stuff but with the RNY how is that going to be possible? I need to research this further. Please keep me posted on what the doctor says about that. (((((((((((((BIG HUGS))))))))))))) Cira
