Testing in A.M

Please remember me in the morning as I will be having a renal ultrasound (kidney's and liver). I had a spot on my liver 2 years ago and he's wanting to check on that again as well as my kidneys. (something to do with my Blood pressure)??? Not sure what my kidney's have to do with my blood pressure being high, but I guess he knows! Thanks in advance for your continued prayers. There are so many prayer requests these days and I want you all to know that I'm praying for all of them. No prayer request is too small. God can handle them all. Love and prayers, Elle

Elle, You are in my continual prayers. How does high blood pressure hurt my kidneys? High blood pressure makes your heart work harder and, over time, can damage blood vessels throughout your body. If the blood vessels in your kidneys are damaged, they may stop removing wastes and extra fluid from your body. The extra fluid in your blood vessels may then raise blood pressure even more. It's a dangerous cycle. http://kidney.niddk.nih.gov/kudiseases/pubs/highblood/index.htm I hope this helps, Gina

I wish I could be there with you, but know I am here FOR you! My thoughts and prayers will be with you tommorrow morning. Please post an update when you can. Julie

I am praying for ya Elle! I agree with Gina...those kidneys & your blood pressure go hand & hand! Glad the M.D. is checking you out! Love ya! Jackie

Good Thoughts and prayers to YOU!! Dana
