Oh Geno, it seems like "when you hit 50 God doesn't give a damn" -those are the exact words that my hemo/oncologist doc jokingly said when we were leaving the exam room after my last visit to him ! Now tomorrow, I get to go back to him and see how all the tests came out - tons of weird blood tests, and an ultrasound of my spleen. I saw the nephrologist this past Friday, and he is going to 'monkey around' with my meds to see if we can get my glom filtration rate down - blood result lingo. He also told me that shots of Procrit, tho maybe not the most ideal tx for my blood woes, would probably be a big help to my kidneys....So here I am the human pin cushion/guinea pig.... Then on Thursday, I have to see the cardiologist for my stress test EKG....can you spell o-l-d??
Well, we can commisurate together, along with the rest of us 'older folks here 
Have a great week! Hugs, Jacquie
