A Week at Home { Day +29 }

Seven days after I was discharged from the hospital, exactly a week, I've been home with my family!!!

I had my appointment this morning, and it went well...no change on the dosage of all medication I am taking...but there's another value on my blood test that went up but nothing to worry about. I just have to drink more... I think this has something to do with my kidneys...

FACTS: Creatinine or Creat is a breakdown product of creatine phosphate in muscle, and is usually produced at a fairly constant rate by the body (depending on muscle mass). (Check this site for more info)
