I Just Have Some Two and Half Day's Supply Of My "Renvela"

I guess that I have to buy from the pharmacy double the price that I am paying from buying my Phosphate binder that I intake along with my foods for me not to absorb too much Phosphorus in my diet and cause problems which causes me further disfigurement and pain.

It is because I am currently buying from my co-patient who happen to receive so much Phosphate binders from his relatives abroad that the surplus that he could not take anymore he just sells at a discounted price for us. So I have to just buy now from our pharmacy here and it has a bigger price margin so it is heavy on my pockets to procure it for myself.

I just needed my phosphate binder like an oxygen in my lungs. Too much phosphorus may exacerbate my parathyroid condition and I am afraid in the from happening so I am carefully managing my diet with due diligence along with my religious usage of my medicines just to control my bone health.

Dialysis for a long-term period gives such bone complications and my case is a rare one that emanated from a poor management which was rooted from financial constraints. But I thank God and the steemians that are always here on my side ready to help because of their kind hearts and I cherish it with all my heart as well so at least I can easily manage my bone and pain issues. Thank you.
