Title: New to IHD but not new to hating Dialysis!
Post by: Ldy on January 12, 2011, 05:15:36 PM: Hi All,

I am the wife and caregiver of Bob (1sickbob). As the subject says we are new here and fairly new to dialysis (6 months this time 6 weeks several years ago) and YES we hate it already! But what ya gonna do? Better than the alternative huh? As Bob said in an earlier post we were expecting this so we had already planned home hemo. We use the NXStage with Pure FLow 6 nights a week approximately 3.25 hours a night. Going in tomorrow for the 2nd fistula surgery since the 1st one is not playing nice after only 5 months of use. We're looking forward to getting to know people here and sharing stories with people who understand what we are going through.

See you all soon!
Monica
