  1. What's been going on in my life?

     

    Recently, some of you may have noticed I have been really quiet. Today's post will explain a little bit why. Most of this won't interest you, but some of you may have wondered at some point. It has always been my lifestyle to be open and honest to the community I love so much. 

     

    Back in December 2019 I started to experience a huge amount of water retention in my legs and lower body. I had severe episodes but it also subsided at time, then, COVID arrived, I continued to get the swelling all the way through to August 2020. 

     

    In early August the swelling became unbearable, I had gained about 30KG - 35KG in weight making me about 110KG in total, This was just water retention in my body. I went to my Doctors surgery, they immediately sent me to hospital.

     

    On 14th August I was admitted and they kept me in for 2 weeks. During this stay, it was decided I am suffering with Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 4. The swelling was due to my Kidneys not functioning as they should, They were not filtering protein from my blood, the protein then became excess fluid, the same fluid which was being retended in my body. 

     

    The main aim during my stay was to get rid of the swelling, over 2 weeks, this went rather well, however I still needed to lose more excess fluid. On leaving the hospital I now weighed about 95KG. For the next 5 weeks, I stayed with my family who supported me in taking medication etc. On 5th October, I returned home, I felt a lot better but I knew I had a lot more to go through yet. Soon after returning home, my gaming PC stopped working, I now know it's a PSU issue, which at the moment I can't fix. So I am now unable to play games, Hence why you have not seen me online so much. As well as focusing on my health recovery which meant less time to spend in the community.

     

    Bringing us up to more recent times, at my last meeting with the specialist Kidney Doctor, They confirmed my Kidney function is getting worse, they estimate in the next 2-3 months I will start Kidney Dialysis as part of my treatment, I also will be placed on to the national Kidney transplant list and will need a transplant very soon.

     

    Some good news though, the excess fluid has dropped even more now bringing me back to a weight of 81KG on Tuesday 1st December. Whilst this is a lot to go through, I have had time to process what's going on. I remain upbeat, and ready to deal with any challenges coming my way. I will not let this get me down. Of course, I welcome any messages of support, It is always kind to know people care. I am not looking for sympathy though, I just felt it was necessary to let you guys know what's going on. 

     

    So if you got this far, Thank you for taking the time to show care and compassion in my situation. 

    I wish you all an amazing Christmas and an awesome 2021!

     

    With much love, ♥️

    TLDR:

    I've been very ill, I've not been online due to less time, my PC broke and I'm letting you know.
