Sorry, now realize PD stands for Peritoneal Dialysis. I would plan on Hemo.

@maggieinfp Some kidney patients facing dialysis choose to do hemodialysis, where a fistula or graft is placed, usually in the arm, for access to exchanging/cleaning blood. Others may choose to opt for peritoneal dialysis [PD for short], where an abdominal catheter is placed and toxins are removed via dwelling of dialysate solution that pulls toxins out across the peritoneum membrane.

For me, I had a fistula placed first, to allow it to heal. My goal was to do PD dialysis, which indeed I am on, but having the fistula also in place in case there would be an emergency situation.
