Just chill'n

Waiting in the hotel before I check into the Green slopes Country club.  Actually its the Green Slopes Private Hospital. some time later this afternoon I go in to start my third and last round (hopfully) in the Pontecelli Protocall for my kidneys. I will get 1000 mgs of Prednisone intraveniously each of three days then 50 mg oral. each day after that I will be in the hospital until they get my insulin balanced after the three days and that took 3 whoole days last time. I'm hoping that with the records of the doses last time, where we were just guessing the levels and then making the adjustments in the next dose window, we may get the jump on getting the levels right sooner.

Anyway I've already set out a chart of new levels for the whole 8 days I may be here and we'll see how I do at getting them right. I of course don't get to make the decision my wonderful Endo team leader Dr Who is in charge of that. or leaves it to the registrar. We'll see how acurate I've been.

I'll have lots of time to blog so watch your inboxes if you've set up notifications and if not... check back often.
