Hello all and hope you all had a happy, peaceful and joyful Christmas time.

I want to start home nocturnal heamo soon in the new year and am looking for an electric adjustable bed, can anyone recommend one?

You could try xposting to KidneyPatientGuide or one of the many Facebook groups.

I don't personally know of anyone who does nocturnal and has invested in an electric bed (which would be expensive)

Hi philipjm

You won't regret your decision to have your treatment at home. Nocturnal dialysis is by far the best treatment option- I've been on it for around 4 years now. It can take a few weeks to get used to sleeping, but persevere.

I can't recommend an electric bed, sorry. I'm on a standard single one.

Good luck.

Don't know where you are, but if in the USA try this link.

If not in the USA perhaps there is an equivalent site where you are. Good luck.

Hi There

We purchased one of these during the summer and have been very pleased with it. We did have the more expensive mattress option, but it is wonderfully comfortable and the purchase had no problems at all.
