November 16 (F)
Today was my outpatient consultation, but from today, my doctor will be mama doctor, Kitabayashi Sensei. My schedule was 10:00 am JST but I have to go to the hospital one hour early for the blood and urine test. After the test, I decided to go to the 14th floor to greet the nurses. Luckily, one of the nephrologists came and he said that he will call Nagatsuji Sensei.
So I was able to meet Nagatsuji Sensei and he gave me a consultation while we are standing in the front desk, he said that he will be writing it down on my records but I have to attend to the consultation with Kitabayashi Sensei. The consultation with mama doctor was fine and she said that she will not be changing the dosage of the medicine for now. She also permitted me to go to a hot spring or go out for sightseeing but I should have company and I should not go to a far place yet. I cannot also eat sushi or raw foods for now she said.
Since I am going to change the pharmacy (from now, I will be using the pharmacy near my apartment), I decided to go to Osaka Castle first before going home. I have to walk from the station to the Osaka Park. It was a good thing that the weather was fine, not too sunny and not too cold, but I did sweat a lot. I got easily tired and my leg muscles are aching. I was about to give up because there stairs going to the main castle, but I was able to climb up after many breaks. I did many breaks while walking.
Then I went to the pharmacy and give the prescriptions, since they will be packing the medicines per morning and night time, it will take sometime, and it is a good thing for me because they were willing to deliver it to my house, but I said just call me and I will come to pick the medicines. The pharmacists are so nice and they give me a thorough explanation of the medicines, and they even advise me to get the mobile application of my medicine booklet. (wow, high-tech!)
I walk a lot and when I got home I am very tired and my muscles are aching.

It is a good thing that I am on a rest day today. My body got tired from yesterday and my muscles are aching. At some point, I am hearing something ringing in my ear like a “chi—n” sound for about 10 seconds. I don’t know what is this, but after that, I am starting o feel a little dizzy.

I woke up early to watch the Sunday Mass live via SNS from Quiapo church.
Today my stomach is aching and I have really bad LBM, it is so bad that it was watery and when I fart I have a clear substance discharging out of my body. I think it is oil or I don’t know. It has a consistency like of an egg white. I decided to have my stomach rest and not eat anything except for soup. And up to today, my leg muscles are aching from walking too much the other day.
November 19 (M)
I was surprised to see Christmas decorations on the 1st floor of the apartment. Oh my! it is Christmas time!
My leg muscles are getting better, I have to exercise it more so I can build some stamina. I still have the white substance with my fart. But after researching it, it was a good thing that it is transparent, if there is color pink, then it means that my intestines are damaged. The article that I read also states that it is normal because I had a bad LBM. But today it is starting to decrease a little. I hope that it will stop today.

The discharge with my fast has stopped, and as I thought my stomach is getting okay, but after eating breakfast my stomach really hurt. I have to take painkillers. I took the mild one first but to no avail, I have to take the strong ones after 2 hours. Recently, every day I have to take the strong painkillers after lunch because my stomach is aching. Though the painkillers took effect, I still have a strange feeling in my stomach.
November 21 (W)
Yesterday was a tough day dealing with my stomach. I have to eat little amount to today because I almost went to the toilet 6 times after breakfast. I tried to avoid oily and fatty foods but I am still having LBM. Upon reading the medicine booklet and as per explanation of the pharmacist, most of the medicines that I am taking may have LBM as a side effect. But I have no other choice but to take all the medicines since I need it. I can deal with the LBM but I hope that my stomach will not hurt.
November 22 (Th)
Today I have a little bit of high blood pressure. I thought that I had it regulated recently because my BPs were good, and I also reviewed the data from the smartwatch. Well, I think there are days that I have high blood pressures too, but the good thing is that I am not feeling dizzy or anything serious.
My medicine dosage is still at:
🌅Morning: 10mg of Predonine, 2 capsules of Cellcept, anti-osteoporosis, half of blood pressure medicine, medicine for uric acid, intestinal medicine, Plaquenil, and additional medicine for infection every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
🌜Evening: 7.5mg of Predonine, 3 capsules of Prograf and 2 capsules of Cellcept, ferrous sulfate, anti-cholesterol medicine, half of a blood pressure medicine, zinc supplement. Sleeping pills #1 & #2.
