Awareness on Kidney diesase and gout

  Did you know that your uric acid can go pass 11? My husbands is currently 12.4 and he can tell a lot difference in it. It is making him severely stiff and causing his back to hurt in spots that normally hurt when ever his kidney does what it does. He was born with only one kidney and did not know it until recently with CTs and ultrasounds. We found out hydration helps with this. He normally drinks electrolyte things such as Gatorade, and body armors and Pedialyte and other hydration things.  This is something you have to know and things you have to watch for with Gout and stage 3 kidney disease.  There are a lot of warning signs that you have to look for. It all started with knots in his ankles and feet. He did not know what was causing it and he kept working with it the way it was. A few days it would clear up and he was okay.  Then it would come back every so often.  Then it went into his knees and he got to where he could not walk. Then it went into his rib...

All Flash, No Cash: The Hypocrisy of Fake Flexing

What really grinds my gears is when people complain nonstop about being broke, and then turn right around and flaunt their money. They’ll talk big, acting like big shots, saying things like, "If so-and-so sees this, they’ll tell me to get one, and they’ll buy one too." I honestly don’t get it. You sit there crying about not having any cash, and then five minutes later you’re acting like a baller when you really don't got it. It’s all smoke and mirrors, and it makes zero sense. Personally, I couldn’t care less what people have or how much money is in their bank account. That doesn’t bother me at all. Everyone's journey is different. What makes me mad is when people just talk to hear themselves talk, bragging and flashing cash when they know full well that others are struggling and just trying to get by. To top it off, they love to throw shade at people who can't afford to blow money on every little trend or thing. They act smug and talk down to folks who are actual...

The struggle of being used Family edition

                                                                                                                   So my aunt and her whole house is sick. They have coughing, sneezing, wheezing, fevers, chills and she has diarrhea.  My aunt ended up going to the hospital due to her leg turning purple. They said her family is going through sinuses and not COVID or anything. Another thing she thinks they are thinking is that her leg is septic or it became back infected again.  We unfortunately are who they call on when they need something and honestly it feels like it has been never ending because they always need something because I feel bad but however I am tired of doing it. This is the thi...

Krystexxa for gout

Krystexxa is an infusion that they give for gout. However it is not your normal infusion.    For starters you have to take a steroid and an allergy med before you can even start the infusion because it can send you into allergic response.    You also have 2 days out of every two weeks you have to go for this. One day is for blood work for uric acid the next day is for the infusion.It is given while you are at the facility.    If you did not know Krystexxa can pretty much give you a severe allergic reaction and they have a lot of precautions for it. They start giving you Methotrexate 4 weeks prior to help with the immune systems to avoid reactions. There are things that they do not tell you about this. Such as it may or may not be beneficial to you. It takes a while for the insurance to even touch and clear it if they do. It cost 30,000 to $35,000 per 8 mg single-dose via but with the doctors and nurses and the facility it costs 135k-150k each time. It takes...
