At the same time I've developped

Urine Calcium Test tips?
As my GP has me down as a hypochondriac malingerer I need some evidence to force testing of calcium properly. I can’t afford a £150 6 hour round trip London clinic test so some internet research led me to a £25 set of 10 dipsticks. I’m ready for the ‘waste of time’ responses and see an endo responses

I would like to build a website to help people on dialysis. But since there are so many factors to consider, I'm hoping to get insights
What kind of website do you think will be most beneficial in helping people on dialysis? a social website that people can connect and share their experience online? maybe share information to better educate patients? Perhaps a website that allows people to share their feelings? pain, frustration? Please

Fed Up with everything.
I have been on haemodialysis since May. Having completed all the tests etc at the beginning of November, I was just waiting to go live in the transplant list. My previous consultant, who is now on maternity leave, said my results were good and she even said, I would probably receive a new kidney before
