Sorry. I probably should provide some background for my question. I'm at Stage 4 (GFR 19.9) and I'm concerned about dialysis and how it will dramatically change my life. I enjoy golfing and can't imagine, at 68 yrs. old, not playing anymore. But, I don't know if a fistula would permit golfing. Is PD an alternative, instead of HD, if I want to continue golfing, or shall I assume that playing golf will be a thing of the past?
