Dialysis

Since i left hospital after 7 days i have been given the opportunity to dialyse at a seperate and independsant dialysis cetre in Worcester, which is 15 mins from my home.

I was a little nervous about dialysis but have found it to be a faily relaxing and simple process.

My fistula failed in surgery so im using central lines into my chest, which are a pain to keep clean but working well so far.

After 3 weeks of dialysis im finding it difficult to get to a dry weight and to keep my fluids low, ive got swollen ankles and hands but we seem to be getting there slowly.
