This is of interest to me as I am about to start dialysis too as I await a kidney & pancreas transplant.
It's funny how seemingly ugly small things suddenly explode. I went to docs 4 years ago with swollen ankles and high BP. Turns out my kidneys were cattle trucked....Comment

At work I used a meeting room at lunch to exchange, no real hassle, weekends away would book a city center hotel and just nip back to exchange, just had to pop a few bags in the car. Went on day trip to London and used the Soho walk in center through the PALS organisation.
And the big big bonus I felt better. Big down side is all the nurses seem to care about is how well you are tulipting, now I talk a lot of tulipe but whole conservations about tulipe consistency and frequency gets a bit wearing. Basically being constipated can block the tube.But I discovered nothing else but depraved, excessive superstition. Pliny the youngerComment
