HIStory: Cris and I met on the internet of all places. It was destiny that brought us together. We met on October 20, 2001. Engaged on December 25, 2003 and married on June 4, 2005. life's been good. We are blessed to have found each other. (go ahead and barf now, lol)In July 2006 my husband and I went on vacation . When we came back his right foot became swollen and he was walking with a limp. Thought he twisted his foot. We went to the MD and they sent us for an xray, then blood tests and told me him he had Gout, plus an elevated BUN, Creatinine, and uric acid level. We were referred to a kidney specialist - it all happened so fast.After meeting the "first" kidney specialist aka Dr.Jerk, getting a CT,tons of labs, then a biopsy. The diagnosis was left on my cell phone (YES on the voice mail), it was Advanced FSGS .I don't think we've even felt it was a reality, until he had surgery on April 30th to have a fistula placed in his left forearm (prepre for dialysis).
