Update

I thought I should throw out an update for everyone. We had labs with a urine culture on 7/15 and saw Dr. M on 7/16. There is bacteria in the urine but it's at a low concentration so we're not going to treat it. Dr. M said of her patients who have had problems with UTIs after transplant it usually settles down after a while and the sometimes flares back up again later. I kind of wish she would have said she's been through this before with patients instead of us thinking this was based solely on Katie's unique anatomy... All of her other levels look good. She's down to one small dosage of one blood pressure medication which is a good thing.

On Monday we're off to see the peds orthopod doctor at Hopkins to discuss the scoliosis and kyphosis. And we finally got the appointment to see the peds nephrologist we want to see at Hopkins but it's not until September.

We have labs again on Friday 7/24 and then we're going camping as a family for the very first time, should be lots of fun!
