The latest scare.

I did my monthly blood work a week ago yesterday. This time, I asked the lab to send results to every doctor on my Medical Team. On Tue. I received a call from my GI. She said my liver phosphates & other indicators were extremely high; higher than she had ever seen. Upon hearing that, I called my TX coordinator. I still don't know why she hadn't noticed anything wrong, as this has been going on since last April according to the back-log of blood work my GI asked for & received. My TX coordinator told me if we didn't get this under control, like now, I would be facing a minimum of a liver TX & a maximum of death. Needless to say, Becky & I were scared out of our britches. I got a call on Thu. from my GI. She told me that (thank God) this problem can be controlled by another med. After being scared for a couple of days, we were relived to say the least!
