Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 Just thought I'd update everyone... I just got the latest results of my blood work, and my MELD is at a 32, which means I'm likely first on the list at Vandy, although I don't have the official word yet. All things considered I'm feeling pretty well... the main thing that has me concerned is wondering why my score has been shooting up so fast lately. My Bilirubin is a 16 and my INR is now up to 3.9 which is much higher than it's ever been before. The risk of cancer has me slightly spooked... When the nurse calls from Vandy, I'll bring that up with her. I'll keep posting updates as things progress! athan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 athan, All my best wishes to you as you enter this new phase. Hopefully, you'll get the call this week and you can put all of this - especially the worries about cancer behind you soon! You're in my prayers, Deb in VA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 athon, Hope you get the call soon. I am sure you are packed and ready? In the past I have told women who were NEXT to get their legs shaved, I don't suppose you need that thought. Hugs and prayers. dee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 athan, Your name and transplant status came up quite a bit at the conference this weekend. You and many others were greatly missed but we look forward to seeing you at next years conference with your new liver working like a charm. I hope your call comes soon and you can put all your worries behind you. We are praying hard for God's intervention. All the best, Omaha/Tarheel Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
