Just wanted to post a quick update to let all of you know that Max is doing very well. Dialysis went great on Tuesday night. We were able to pull off enough fluid to get him off of his oxygen yesterday morning.
He had labs drawn yesterday and the results were better than they have been in awhile. His BUN (level that indicates how much urea is in his blood) dropped from the 60's to 43 with his new dialysis prescription.
Maybe the whole hospital stay was a blessing in disguise.
We will be going back for Max's clinic appointment on Monday. They will be doing a different test (Kinetics) at that point to see how well the dialysis is working. He will have to have another blood test done on Monday which is a bummer, but he is tough and will pull through just like he always does.
Enjoy the rest of your week and weekend! We will keep you posted on how things go on Monday- including how much he has grown!
