      We got you covered with crossed fingers. But I wanted add some positive thoughts and prayers on top of that. We are certainly cheering for great scans.

      Good Luck to You…. Let us know.

      Julia I had similar problems with Leukine and Lisinipril. My creatinine level was normally around 1.0, but after treatment it raised to 3.3. It took about 6 months to get the level back under 1.5. The other day it was 1.3 and that was 6.5 months. So it has not got to my normal level yet. I am told it is trending down and that is a good thing. Basically wait and see.

      The doctors were not alarmed…………I was… It really did scare me. I also called a friend of mine that just had a kidney transplant and quized her. She said the creatinine level works differant on many people. She had no pain or problems and her level was over 5………Some people have a lot of pain and problems and there level is 3.

      Hopefully Bernhard will see his level decrease soon and the doctors get to the bottom of it.

      Good Luck… Positive Prayers and Thoughts to both of you.

      Thanks James,

      The Decath system wouldn't work as there are tumors all over my body and have been told that is not a good option for me. They did not recommend anything but the following as my creatinine level canceled me out of many other trials. I also had Dr. Falchook to call Dr. Weber @ Moffit and made sure they both agreed on the treatment and they both agreed.

      Also I misspelled the Revlimed… it should be Revlimid.

      Julia you are more than welcome to share my notes with anyone. Hope it helps. I thought my 3.3 was alarming. Make sure you leave no stones unturned with this creatinine level… until both of you feel comfortable.
