Home dialysis and electric

[daisy64]

Hi is anyone on home dialysis and with EON how much does it cost you extra a month I need someone who is on at least 4 times a week for 4 hours a time or more if possible Im asking cause I would like to compare??

I'm on dialysis 66.5 hours a week and it costs £4 a week to run the machine ! I'm with First Utility but I own my own solor panels which generates nearly the equivalent in electric per year to what my yearly electric bill is ? So my annual electric bill for the past two years has only cost £2 of £3

I don't think personally it should be a concern on cost when it's keeping you alive ! But I guess some of the big 6 electric company's charge stupid prices to look after thier shareholders !

Shouldn't be a concern it is when they are charging us 50 per week he cant afford to go on the machine, you try telling them that they dont care or even bother. We get 20 pounds only for the reimbursement a month its flippen ridiculous.

I'm on dialysis 4 times a week. Do bring this up with the NKF advocacy officer, and your hospital. They way hospitals re imburse isn't the simplest of calculations. How much it costs I can't answer.. A question for the techs probably
