My kidney appears to be rebounding. I'll probably get weekly tests for a while. Spread the word--osmoprep should not be taken by people taking most high blood pressure meds especially diuretics. It can cause kidney failure. I'm going to dodge that particular bullet but I still very upset that the doctor's office didn't check my meds before prescribing it to me--the FDA put the black box warning on last December after all. This would be the pills you get pre-colonoscopy as oppose to the nasty liquid. Wish I would have had the nasty liquid!

On a brigter note, a lot of the edema is gone and my weight is going down again. I'm also back into yoga--gentle yoga--to compliment the walking. I'm discovering muscles I forgot I had. But it's a good pain :-) Georgia
