Rexinator Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 So I know I've been very inactive here lately and I figured I give my reason why. For the last 17 years I've been dealing with a very rare auto-immune disease called Wegeners Granulomatosis which effected my kidneys and lungs. Well the lungs have healed but my kidneys are a different story. Up until last year about this time I was doing ok until I found out I was officially going thru renal failure and had to start dialysis. So I decided to try and get on a donor list at one of my nearby hospitals and after going thru all their various tests and Dr. visits they told me news I already knew about but was still surprised that I had to do it. My left kidney had a mass in it that was cancerous, so they wanted to remove it and did at the beginning of August. Good news is that the cancerous mass was contained and removed and I am no longer having to worry about that issue. Needless to say that the last few months I have been in recovery mode and have been trying to get myself healed up and in a healthier state of mind and body. This is obviously my main reason for my inactivity throughout the last few months/summer. Besides when you're doped up with having to take Vicodin every day it makes it challenging to try and stay focused let alone awake to play a video game. I've been trying to jump on every week or so but I've since recently developed a stronger case of carpal tunnel which makes it tough to play for an extended time. Anyways, I am gonna try and play a bit more. It's always good to see some old faces/screennames when I jump on. Oh yea and Happy Halloween and Happy Birthday F|A!!!

Icedragon Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Wow that's a real something you have been through. I hope you have recovered well and hopefully you and your dr. can find a suitable donor for your other kidney. Stay strong! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
