Home dialysis concerns
He was going to a
dialysis
clinic 3 times a week for his treatments. Last week we started the home
dialysis
training process. As the caregiver I’m really nervous about this, afraid I may be able to do it or may harm my husband during home
dialysis
.

Wack a Mole and itching
When I told them at clinic, my Neph said it has nothing to do with
dialysis
. I could not believe it. It has everything to do with
dialysis
and it is very common. It is called CKD-aP.

Older Patients and Gains from Dialysis
We are preparing for

dialysis
when their eGFR fell below 12 mL/min/1.73 m2 who were not referred for transplant had modest gains in

Hello
I have had FSGS since I was 7 and between the 4 transplants I have had plenty of
dialysis
. I am over 40 now and back on
dialysis
. I am having a hard time this time around. It has been harder and looking for others like me to talk with.

Low Blood Pressure solutions
I am currently on
dialysis
after my 15 year kidney transplant diminished in function. My BP has been low…below 100 systolic, ….likely due to taking Propafenone & Metatoporal for my AFib.
Dialysis
also contributes to my low BP. Low consistently is hard on kidney health.

Transient treatment
Can anyone still get transient
dialysis
treatment? It's never been so hard. My wife has been on
dialysis
for 8 years, and when she started this journey, we were told travel was no problem. Yeah, right, those were the days.

seeking a kidney donor
In April 2024, I was diagnosed with End-Stage Renal Disease and now rely on peritoneal
dialysis
(PD) 7 days a week.
Dialysis
is exhausting and restricts my daily activities . I hold a Masters degree from Purdue and work as a Data engineer in Silicon Valley.

new med called Xphozah and it is great for phosphorous
Once I started
dialysis
, we could not get the phosphorous to go down. Now mind you, before
dialysis
, it was always over 5 most times or even over 5.5 and was at 5.8 before I started
dialysis
. Neph put me on a binder, sevelamer, did nothing, except block me up completely.
