Finishing College with CKD
I'm not on
dialysis
or any medication for my kidney disease specifically, but I have other health conditions that I have to manage on top of that and doing all of it while in school has been exhausting.

dialysis
. Is anyone else high and what do you do. Do you use a binder and how's that going?

Finding my way
I don't know much about
dialysis
, but it sounds scary. As I understand it, my kidney issues are (probably) due to: diabetes type 2, liver transplant, anti rejection/meds, or a mix of these. My query is about symptoms. I am getting very weak.

Switch diet to Vegetarian - save your kidneys
His doctor told him he had to go on
dialysis
. He had blood in his urine plus a very low GFR. A plant based diet saved him from
dialysis
. My hero is Ken Hull who has 2 books titled STOPPING KIDNEY DISEASE FOOD GUIDE available on Amazon.

The truth about Home Dialysis
She is Ex-Army with I believe over 20 years of
dialysis
experience. She is no nonsense and that's just fine with me. And the other is my Med Tech. We just love her to pieces. She also has multiple years of experience. I train with my husband in a private room.

Augmentation and how to move on.
Hi I have kidney failure and am on
dialysis
3 times a week. I have severe RLS. My specialist has prescribed me 100mg Pre Gablin together with 0.44mg of pramipexole daily. I have, over a period of 3 Months been increasing my dose of pramipexole from the minimum to where we are now.

brand new diagnosis
What happens to the other 50% and those that do get there, does that mean
dialysis
air transplant? I start steroids and immunosuppressants tomorrow. Will I be on those forever? Any advice for any of this? I’m so new and I just don’t know what it all means. Severity, future, etc., etc., etc.
