@stevewyatt You've had a bit more than a full week on dialysis, now. How are you feeling? In time you will figure out what projects you can safely do while in hemodialysis. I am being evaluated for peritoneal dialysis in a few weeks. Do you have a co-driver to help you in case you are feeling a bit under the weather for the return trip? Someone I know used to reward herself after a hemodialysis appointment, by getting a cheeseburger and fries! Not saying to go to such an extreme, but maybe a small reward is on the books?

I've found a rhythm during dialysis. I do about an hour and a half of driving, then I either rest or watch some podcasts. I had my first surgery for a fistula yesterday. This is gettin' real.
