Aaron's Hyper IgM Journey

Wednesday, April 11, 2012

Blindsided (Day+99)

So much for not worrying anymore. We found out Aaron has stage 3 kidney disease and his kidneys only work 50-60% of normal. He also may have developed TMA, a condition that causes inflammation of the capillaries causing red blood cells to burst and protein in the urine. This condition can range from mild to long term or quickly fatal.

I am upset because this is the first anyone has told us about any kidney problems. The doctors have known for awhile and never said anything. We had an appointment with the nephrologist who informed us. At this point I have no idea what to think. Aaron could use lots of prayers right now. His body needs to heal.
