PKD Update

We finally heard back from the doctor in regards to the 24 hour blood pressure monitor that Nicholas wore. Unfortunately we have bought enough time and the inevitable is here. His blood pressure is constantly running high and it is time for medication. High blood pressure is the #1 symptom of PKD and also causes quicker kidney damage if left untreated. We will start on a very low dose and then work our way up as needed. He is still scheduled for the MRA on July 15th just four days before his 15th birthday. (WOW) that was fast!!! Nicholas is the type of child who rarely gets discouraged and this new hurdle is no exception. His is thankful that there is medication for him to take. (His mother has learned alot from him and his attitude) Please continue to pray for him during all of these 'new' phases.
