What makes me so very sleepy after home hemodialysis? Why have my legs become very soft since dialysis? I can't walk.

AV fistula or AV graft?
Hi everyone I've been on
haemodialysis
for just over 2 months now, since vasculitis destroyed my kidneys. I am due to have the operation to create a fistula as soon as I get a date through from the hospital.

Home hemodialysis supplies
My hubby passed away and I have a months worth of supplies. Any ideas on who may be able to use them. My renal center said that must be thrown away. Considering the cost I am reluctant to do this

Worried about post transplant swelling.
Hi, I am a 20 year old on
haemodialysis
with no swelling issues. I am somewhat concerned with how I will look post transplant. (Live related donor, if that makes any difference) How bad was your swelling and how did you deal with it? Thanks.

Need advice for backup power supply for doing home dialysis
My husband has been on home hemodialysis for two years. We want to get a backup power supply for the dialyzer in the event of a power failure. We know nothing about how to go about this. Does anyone else have a backup power unit for their home equipment? Thanks.

Hi everyone, We are newly home from a liver and kidney transplant and have a large number of dialysis supplies that we no longer need. We had just ended our first week of home dialysis when we got the call for the transplant. The supplies are new and in unopened shipping boxes. I hate to see this go

Living on dialysis
Hi jayhawker its Mj 1965, its been a while.b4 I started dialysis I wanted to go on
haemodialysis
but I was advised by my nephrologist to go on PD dialysis because if I went on
haemodialysis
it would make me feel worse and I would feel drained all the time.

What next?
Given my history, I highly suspect that this lesion is malignant, which will probably mean the loss of my only kidney and

ad mortem. Is anyone else in my situation? How do you manage it? I am 58 and receive care in the UK.
