I have many favorite countries, and your country is one that just seems, well, interesting: the language, the history, the landscape, the people and the more reasonable government.
I have severe kidney disease and arthritis, too so I'm not only sympathetic; I have an idea of what you're going through. The good news is that managing kidney disease isn't a terrible burden (you're allowed as much coffee as you like!). It may even be possible you had a "temporary" (acute) problem due to your infection and things return to normal once you recover fully. I hope that is so!
I am one of the lucky ones with insurance and I will be having my second shoulder surgery for my arthritis in 11 days (I had the other shoulder fixed 8 months ago).
Again, all my best wishes for a full and quick recovery, and for good news from your doctors. If you have any questions about managing chronic kidney disease, please feel free to ask me.
