If hospital HD patients were made aware of this and the benefits they may well prefer to do seven days per fortnight thus avoiding the two day break
no i would like to stay with the 3 day a week i think the one thing you should do why on dialysis is to keep fit and carry on with work as this works for me very well as i am a gardener its very hard work but i seem to drink more then most people but i work it off
