I'm a seventeen year old female dialysis patient (as of last feb really unexpectedly) and I've noticed that almost every month this year just before I've come on, I seem to have ended up in hospital. This has been anything from about 10 days to just 1 but it seems like a pretty big coincidence.
Could it be related? I haven't mentioned to anyone at the hospital as it sounds a bit silly!

Hi justagirl, I am not aware that this sort of thing is related to CKD or dialysis but I do advise you talk to someone, don't be afraid about how silly the question sounds, the doctors and nurses will understand and help you. Never be affraid to ask.
