Hello @rob9021,
Welcome to Connect! You've asked a great question, and I'd like to begin by introducing you to @gaybinator and Mentor @rosemarya, as they might have more insight for you. In the meantime, you might also wish to read this published study:

@rob9021, we look forward to getting to know you; could you share a few more details? Why was dialysis recommended for you? When did you start dialysis?
