Hi, it could be your haemoglobin, or your iron levels have dropped. As always, ask your Renal Consultant to check your bloods.
My husband had Kidney Failure and has been on Haemodialysis since 03/2015 . At first he settled into the routine fine , but then got an infection through a cannula which he still had in the base of his neck until his fistula was operating 100% . This infection went straight to his spine ( Discitis ) and the pain unbearable , he is on pain patches now . The infection has not been identified , and IV antibiotics given , the infection remains . Also he continues to loose weight , down from 98 kilos to 75 .. He also suffered breathlessness , but this has just improved after being treated for a bout of pneumonia..
