update: Once again, i apologize to anyone i havent had a chance to call, message, text, or email back. Things seem to be improving greatly on the inside of my body. vital, and i guess non vital organs seem to be on the mends. kidney wise my creatinine level has gone down from 6.0 to 3.5. CK went down form unmeasurable (above 20,000) down to 1,250 and my Blood/Urine/Nitrogen has dropped to 62. Basically, im hungry again, thirsty again, and then i use the bathroom afterwards like a normal person again. finally. If all results come back well in the morning, tonight should be my last night having to sleep with an iv in my arm! Also, tonight is potentially my last night in this 5 star Edgewood hospital! Im going to miss the food, the lovely view i had from my room, the indoor pool that was a little small but nice, and the live music and two drink minimum they provided in the lobby on the weekends. I highly recommend St. Elizabeths facilities for anyone just looking to stay a couple nights, but not for twelve days straight though. Hopefully in the morning I will be checking into a inpatient physical rehabilitation center right down the road frtom where I am. They are going to provide 3 - 4 hours daily rehabilitation on a more personal level so i can begin to relearn how to walk, run, jump, climb stairs, play soccer, etc. until i am back up to par and have strength in my legs again. I hear the golf course is pretty nice at the HealthSouth Rehab Hospital, and they provide you with a caddie. As long as their breakfast buffet is good and their prime rib sunday with bottomless domestic beers is on point, i should be able to tough it out. i do hope the live music is a little better over there than it was here, but i feel like i am just being too picky now. seriously though, thank you so much to everyone who has stopped by for even a second to say hi. i dont know if you will every realize how nice it is to see a familiar face that cares during times like these. from my heart, i appreciate it more than you guys will ever know
