Mom update 3/1/11

Mom's creatnine and BUN levels are still up.
The creatnine was 4.6 on Sunday, and came down to 4.4 yesterday.  The doctors have her on fluid restrictions and that is really driving her nuts.  They did take her catheter out last night but she hasn't been able to void yet, mainly because she has been asleep.  Evidently when deprived of all but the smallest amounts of water the kidneys are supposed to kick back in and start working again, this is what her doctor feels sure will happen, I am praying he is right!
The nephrologist mentioned maybe letting her go home tomorrow (well today now since it's 1:39 AM). 
So please keep praying that her creatnine and BUN levels come down and her kidneys are healthy
Thank you & God Bless.
