Well kids, had my 6 month today. Kidneys are taking a real beating, filling up with water, legs larger then I care to mention, blood pressure still on the weak side of life. Cardio wants to decrease my Diovan HCT in the hopes of gaining some blood pressure and causing the kidneys to work more efficiently and to take away some of the load they're carrying now. He won't order a CT to check on my aneurysm until we get this kidney situation worked out. He's afraid that the contrast dye will screw me up for life. He said if the kidney deal doesn't resolve doing this, he'll order an echo instead. We all know how good echo results are. Now I'll take half of the Diovan HCT that I did and retest the blood in 4 weeks and we'll see where we go from there. I ain't happy.
