I went on dialysis in November of last year. I go three times per week.
At the start I was bothered by extreme tiredness. Now, I am a little tired
but not too bad. Tuesday I was told it looked like I no longer need dialysis.
I am having another test this weekend to confirm it. Going to dialysis was a
pain, because of the early hours I went! I choose 6 AM to 11 AM because I
could sleep through most of it! Are you using catheters or a shunt to get your
blood? I am now using a shunt. It was put in in early December but
allergic problems kept me from using it until about one and a half months ago.
It is true that dialysis works better that way!
