Hi I'm Kathryn: I am on peritoneal dialysis... - Kidney Dialysis
Hi I'm Kathryn
Hi Kathryn so sorry your going through this . I am also on PD now . Although I have a husband and 4 young adult and teenagers I often feel alone , it's so hard to describe the pain , fear and depression that this disease has over u unless it's someone who has also experienced it . If u need to chat with anyone please don't be afraid to get ahold of me !
Thank you Heather. I was in the hospital so I did not see your response until today.
I an not on dialysis yet, but it is coming. I am 75 years young,have been told that I was last year. Presently GFR is 18 and creatnine is 2.4. I am diabetic and blood sugar is not going good.My husband is adamant that dialysis will not happen and of course I hope it don't either. Its not his body & does not realize how it is affecting me, being so tired and depressed with no one to talk to. Thank you so much for listening!
Do you have anyone to help you hook everything up?
