Pothole

First off, the good news. The sonogram and several sets of labs all show that the new kidney is just fine. Everything else is relative to that.

It has been a rough week. I became progressively more and more tired, developed a low-grade fever, had intestinal problems, became dehydrated, and had urological issues. I was in bed from Thursday afternoon until Sunday afternoon except for a couple of hours on Saturday evening.

Finally today I was diagnosed with a urinary tract infection and given a new med. I follow-up with my doctor tomorrow. Too early to tell how things are going, but I'm hopeful it will be under control sooner than later and I can start to get some strength back again.

Thanks to some special friends for helping again with yard work while I'm down.
