Still tryin' to get it right

[Guest guest]

During dialysis today my BP started to drop and I couldn't breath,

come to find out they keep sucking me dry. When they got my BP back

up it got so high they couldn't get it under control. I ended up

with a splitting headache for the last half of my treatment. The

nurses tell me I need another option, dialysis is not for me. I feel

so bad all the time, I'm drained during and after dialysis, I fell

like all I do is sleep and complain.

I got the #'s today for the hospitals that do the tx in my area, when

I told my mom I think she was a bit disapointed that I didn't call

both of them TODAY. It was almost 4:30 by the time I got the #'s and

when I got home I had company and then when they left I took a nap.

I'll do it in the morning, I have a few calls I have to make

tomorrow, I may as well do them when I'm awake and alert and I can't

do that on a dialysis day.

I know it's only my second week on dialysis but I really hate feeling

like this. Does anyone have any tips or tricks that they can share?
