My brother needs a kidney and advice
Now that one is failing and him needing
dialysis
is happening faster than we thought. He keeps referring to a transplant as a temporary fix. It makes me sad like he has already resigned to dying from this too. The list where we are is very long.

COVID, Internal Bleeding/ multi organ failure and coma
She is having
dialysis
every couple of days. Liver is not working although some enzymes were showing slight improvement. Her skin is yellowish. She is still on the ventilator without sedation. Due to the coma, she isn’t bothered by it.

Living on a narrowboat
I am likely to start on
dialysis
some time this year and was going to opt for peritoneal
dialysis
. Does anyone have any idea if this is viable on a narrowboat? I would be considering the overnight
dialysis
, not continual. Many thanks for any thoughts.

Chronic kidney Disease. I want to reduce my creatinine count gradually. I have no guidance from my family. Which medicine should I follow?
I'm a CKD patient undergoing
dialysis
Treatment weekly twice. Please tell me how to reduce my creatinine count. I mean what diet as an Indian I should follow. I'm undergoing
dialysis
Treatment for the last 5 months. Please let me know in detail.

Covid 19 3 months sick again
His kidney started failing again and needed
dialysis
.. His heart was not working good again and was put on vasopressors.. and his lungs needed extra support from the ventilator.

NXStage home patient constantly threatened by nurse/doctor if I have questions or concerns. They say then go in center or hospice.
It feels like there is no caring or compassion from the people being paid to help us with
dialysis
.

mom has been in the ICU for 6 weeks...doctors are discouraging.
Doctors there were able to safely & quickly remove a lot of the fluid from her body through 24
dialysis
. She’s now on overnight 10 hour
dialysis
almost every night. This helped stabilize her blood pressure and alleviate pressure she was experiencing around her heart and lungs.

I honestly don't think i could do
dialysis
again. I could really use some well wishes.

Nerve pain
I've been on PD
dialysis
for 16 months, very compliant, have diabetes (controlled) and hypertension (controlled). I have been experiencing significant pain in my feet and ankles nightly around 4am. Painful to even walk but the pain abates over the morning. I'm pretty sure it's neuropathy.

Covid X Kidneys
My concern now is her kidneys which are not working properly and she is having
dialysis
from time to time. Doctors told us they have no ideia if that will be a permanent condition. What do your doctors tell you about covid and kidney failure?
