Iron
I started having iron as my blood count is very low at the moment and slightly anaemic. Its a horrible black liquid that goes straight into the dialysis machine. I makes my mouth feel like I'm sucking a rusty old iron bar, luckily it last only for 20 seconds or less. yuk
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.
