Fistula Update
Saw a nurse at the renal outpatients today and apparently the fistula seems to be working well, the vein is still a little "delicate" but is working well. So that's good news.
Oddly it seems to stop buzzing at night but is still making a pumping sound! strange these fistulas!
I am a 40 year old from a small village in the UK. I was diagnosed with PKD in 1985 and lived a normal life since. Recently my kidneys have started to fail and now its time to remove them and go for a transplant. This is my diary.
