I can’t even sleep in
dialysis
. I found some old 20 mg OxyContin night before last and out of desperation I added a 20 mg to my 30 mg at bedtime. I did not do this lightly and am very aware of not wanting to take too much.

The ups and downs of dialysis. Where do I start?
Dialysis
like anything else is 100% psychological because in the
dialysis
center it doesn't matter if you are Black or White, Male or Female, Gay or Straight, Rich or Poor. During those 4 hours we are ALL the same.

Question
Basically the stories was about a local police officer who has lupus and has been on
dialysis
for 6 years. His wife wanted to donate a kidney to him and did all the tests and submitted the application forms to the kidney transplant coordinator.

Follow that kidney diet
He thinks that I can avoid
dialysis
, though gfr drops with age. So, whatever you do, follow the advice of the dietitian and embrace the kidneys diet.

Need to do more than control Creatinine levels?
As I understand it, high levels of creatinine indicates poor kidney function, therefore if I can lower my creatinine level by some other action or change of diet etc, the poor kidney function would still be present and would continue to decline and eventually
dialysis
would be needed? Am i correct?
