How I started getting kidney infections

in #steemph7 years ago (edited)

It started as an ordinary swelling on my right foot and little did I know that it was already an underlying symptom of a much more serious case.
Simple diagnosis of Urinary Tract Infection and simple blaming on eating junk foods and consumption of sodas.
I was a high school student back then
Until college came and my so called UTI case became much worst.
I was admitted a countless times in countless hospitals in the city.
Been prescribed to take several oral meds which those sizes ,smells and taste are beyond thinkable.
Been eating flavorless foods for half a decade. My family even consulted several doctors. I underwent several laboratory tests, biopsy etc. even tested for lupus and leukemia but thank god it was none of those which we mostly fear .
We thought it will be okay knowing that I tested negative among those two .
But came the year 2014 , it struck all of us for then my diagnosis became clear. I positively diagnosed with Chronic Kidney Disease Stage V. Been to Hemodialysis and blood transfusions . There are times that all of those treatment takes no effect anymore . Been flatlined and experienced cardiac arrest . But amidst all of that , I was a fighter ! It's true , some days are bad , some days are good. Some days my pain is unimaginable and some days are bearable .
I don't have any idea how would I feel nor thought. And some wouldn't understand my mood swing and my situation .
But never did I quit. I’ve been beyond but choose to fight back. STAY POSITIVE! Now, I’m raising funds for KIDNEY TRANSPLANT and I guessed steemit could help me raise funds aside from gofundme :) GOD BLESS EVERYONE. HEALTH IS WEALTH81B694A8-48EB-41F3-BB10-B47E0D858A85.jpeg
