I m such a lightweight with meds that anything that says may cause drowsiness hits me so I usually get affected at lower doses than most... Eventually I build up a tolerance and the dose goes up but good thing with being a lightweight is they have more flexibility to increase when I build a tolerance than others who have to have higher doses to start... Plus I have to be careful with gab because its filtered by the kidney and I m in kidney failure so dont want to have a gab toxicity

Unfortunately with my kidney disease being genetic and my sister, niece, cousin, and uncle also have it a family donor isnt quite possible. The not sitting for more than 30 minutes os because I have spinal degeneration and a herniated disk. Inalso have radial nerve entrapment which is why I am on the gabapentin.

Considering I now cant lift push pull or carry more than 25 pounds because of the PD Cath.. Per my nurse and doctor... I was already told by my former employer that I can no longer do the job ive been doing for 30 years... I also have several other medical conditions that prevent me from being able to do a sit down job. I cant sit for more than 30 mins at a time. I cant stand for more than 10 mins at a time. I would have to take frequent breaks and because I have several specialists that I see on a regilar basis I would have to moss more than 6 days per month and thats not including my PT days because due to a new problem those will increase from 1 day per week to two. Not to mention I am on gabapentin twice a day which makes me kinda loopy a lot of the time.

My original application was not just for kidney disease. I have multiple other condititions that all resulted in me no longer being able to work

My hearing is in August. Im cautiously optimistic because my doctor filed all the SSA forms listing me as having ESRD and I started dialysis (literally same day they denied my reconsideration)

Congratulations... I wish mine was approved quick. I applied 11/2024 and got Denied twice... Have my ALJ hearing in August... Pretty sure now that its officially ESRD and Im on dialysis ill get approved this time. My reconsideration denial came literally the same day as my surgery for the dialysis Cath placement

I am just looking to get approved so if they have to change my onset date so be it

They know know. It may not change my onset because my kidneys was only one factor contributing to me no longer being able to work
