Another cholangitis infection, Part 2

Life with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
1

Had another cholangitis infection last week, putting me back at Piedmont Hospital from Thursday through Sunday. Luckily, I think I got there early enough that my bloodwork had not gone haywire. My liver levels were pretty good.

What was not good is that the meds have taken their toll on my kidneys., as my GFR hit 26, when the lowest level of normal is 40. So I meet with a nephrologist on March 23rd. I have accepted living with a transplant, but never thought I would have to deal with kidney problems.

Like Rosanna Rosanna Dana said, “If it’s not one thing, it’s another.”

For those of you post-tx, have you ever dealt with any kidney issues?

So sorry. What meds caused the kidney issue? I have been on Ursodiol for 10 years and no side effects.

So very sorry to hear this. I’m very lucky, my numbers have remained pretty much the same for 3 years. Hoping they stay that way. Consistently twice what they should be, but I’m told not too bad. Pat

Very sorry to hear about this Jeff. Joining Mark in praying that things would get quickly sorted out. I’m two years post-tx and doing well.
