Doctor visit yesterday

[Lindsey]

I'm not sure if I've talked about it before here, but when I was about 16 or 17 I went to the doctor for a throat infection and he saw a really high amount of protein in my urine sample. I got shipped around to tons of doctors and specialists, getting tests and ultrasounds. The ultrasounds showed that I had a lot of damage on my right kidney. The best explanation I got is that I always have throat infections, and apparently the kidneys are the first organs to be hit when a throat infection spreads. So I've had it constantly monitored since then. In 2007 I saw my specialist again and the results showed a 200% improvement, so he now just wants to see me every 2 years to make sure it's not getting bad again. And my regular doctor wants to do his own testing in between just to keep his own record of it.
