CLINICAL TRIALS?
I have heard that clinical trials exist for experimental devices that can be worn on the body of a
dialysis
patient that will do the job of the big machines (I do not know whether it is under the heading of "hemo" or "peritoneal"
dialysis
, but I would *think* it makes sense (and less dangerous) if it

Drop in haemoglobin
I have stage 4 kidney failure, no
dialysis
yet and Vasculitis. I take iron tablets and Aranesp injections to increase my Hb levels. I’m waiting for Addenbrookes to get back to me next week, but just wondered if this had happened to anyone else.

So many questions
How long can a person stay on
dialysis
? Is there life after ckd diagnosis and will my anxiety ease after getting the news? Is my lifespan limited now.

Can someone give me some advice.
She is in the hospital and just started
dialysis
. The
dialysis
is not cleaning her blood. They want to do a blood transfusion. The question is will this change the results of a kidney transplant, will the new kidney and body be rejected because of the transfusion? My niece is just 58. Thank you

I have fortunately recovered some kidney function and they are now about 25% functional so no
dialysis
required.

New here and worried about my Mom
Her kidneys were not functioning when she arrived so they put her on a
dialysis
machine, but took it out on the fourth day because they started working on their own again.

Next Stage Dialysis
Has anyone heard of and or tried the Next Stage
Dialysis
clinics? They are relatively new and the machines are claimed to be easier on your body. I just switched from a 32 seat clinic to a 7 seat clinic. Wondering your thoughts. It’s a lot quieter .

I need support please, finding a donor is a challenge!
He is a father of four, working professional and goes home to
dialysis
nightly. I am amazed by his stamina although the reality is he coughs and stresses out each morning. The sleepless nights are affecting his daytime overall feeling.

Worried about mum.
She has also told me that when she is in kidney failure she is not going to get a transplant or do
dialysis
. I am really starting to worry that I only have a couple years left with her and that she is going to go down hill quickly.

I am still emotionally destroyed after my Dx, any tips?
I am so scared to end up on
dialysis
. That is my greatest fear. Losing my freedom. How do you cope mentally? Any tips are well appreciated.
