Guest guest Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Hi Vicki, I'm in London UK and it's snowing at the moment! Where are you all from?! Hi everyone! I was reading Amy's reply about Dave's flare-up and she mentioned a friends maternity leave in the UK. I was just wondering if the majority of you are in the US? I live in Northern Ireland, but I'm originally from Scotland- I moved over here when I was 16. I'm now 26, married to Darran and we have 2 children: Leona who is nearly 5 and who is 2. As you can imagine, I'm glad my parents dragged me over here, and I wouldn't change it for the world!! I was diagnosed with IgAN last month after having proteinuria and high blood pressure since my first pregnancy five years ago. I'm still a bit shocked but it helps when you realise there are so many other people going through the same thing. Anyway, I hope everyone is well. My husband isn't working this weekend so hopefully I'll get lots of cups of tea made for me- I'm very easily pleased!!

Guest guest Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 At current moment I am in St. Louis, Missouri. I was born in Alaska and then went to New Mexico then Texas then Germany then Washington state then back to Alaska and then we drove from Alaska to Texas and somehow landed in Missouri. My dad was army. I have lived in St. Louis for 3 years now with my 5 year old son who has Down Syndrome. We moved here so that he could get more help and have more options. BRANDY > Hi everyone!

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Hi Vicki I'm from Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Kingston is about half way between Ottawa and Toronto (for those who know Canadian geography). I was diagnosed with IgAN in 1980 via biopsy. I'm 39 now. My Creat level is reaching 400, and I'm looking at a possible pre-emptive transplant in the (probably) no too distant future. I've recently began Aranesp (www.aranesp.com) shots to treat my anemia. Feel OK considering though. Curtis - married, two kids - Tyler (5) and (2). Where are you all from?! Hi everyone!

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Hi Curtis, I am sorry to hear you are nearing the point where you need a transplant. A preemptive is the plan for me as well, but I am hoping Cellcept can keep me stable for another two years at least before that happens. I think you will find the injections will make you feel much better. I have been on Epo for several years, and as far as I am concerned, it is a miracle drug that gave me my life back. It made a huge difference in correcting my anemia and giving me more energy. I hope you feel much better too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
