six months later
@ 14 Apr. 2006 - 15:41:40dear whoever is listening, its now been six months since my kidneys failed and I began dialysis, Haemo dialysis left me continuously sick, dizzy,tired, thirsty and infected, in the nine months of haemo dialysis I had around six infections and was allways in and out of accident and emergency.
we have recently changed to Capd, home dialysis where you have a tube inserted into your tummy and this is used for the treatment, for more info check out

anyway this type of dialysis is much better I feel perfectly well, my appetite is normal, I can drink more and the sun is shining.
Oh yeah, and God is still awsome I still wait upon Him to fullfil His word.
Blessings .

I wish you all the very best of luck with your health and I thank God I am lucky enough to be healthy. My heart goes out to you - I hope other things in your life compensate for your bad luck. If you are ever bored whilst having treatment, try the fantasy story I have written for dreamy teenagers - might not be your 'cup of tea' at all but it might cheer you up and 'take you away' for a bit! http://forestopuscules.blog.co.uk
Here is one of my favourite sayings which always makes me smile - attributed to Winnie the Pooh
"An ambush is a sort of surprise. So is a gorse bush sometimes."
All the best bunnybabe (actually, that's not my real name but who cares?)

you have my deepest sympathy as I can relate to you as your skin.In 2001 my one kidney gave up working.I did things the oter way round to you,I had CAPD first and it nearly cost me my life,infection after infection and peritonitus.I had to go for heomo' I had no choice if I wanted to live,like any other kidney sufferer.Now six years down the line and people are talking about a possible transplant,but you know what,I cannot handle it.I know that I should be over the moon,but the medicines and no immune system for a while scares the life out of me.I want to talk to people who have done it,other wise I WILL DIE because of my ignorance.Anyone out there?
