Hey Ginger, This is what she just texted me.

“Can't take Gatorade or pedialyte because of phosphorus build up
Same with electrolytes, can't manage the levels correctly with kidney failure.”

@biga282 If she is on phosphorous binders it should be okay. Most dialysis patients have to take them. I don't, myself. Maybe she could cut them half and half with plain water. I am concerned about her electrolytes balance in her body given all the throwing up. It could be a vicious cycle/ circle trying to balance everything 😕
