Title: OMG Ed had a 2629 UF in one drain last night
Post by: Sydnee on February 26, 2013, 11:24:57 AM
He wasn't swollen or anything. He hooked up for the night did a normal drain and fill. Then 2 hours latter 2629 over and above the 2500 that he filled with. He was draining as we were getting ready for bed after it reached 2300 we stood there are watched I'd never seen numbers that big.

Must have been a night, I had a UF of 629 this morning.  It was 2690 something. I was not swollen when I went to bed, but I sure felt great this morning.

I had never seen it go above 4000 ml then it went above 5000 ml. Just wow.

Maybe we should have a contest - for the largest UF in a night! Only a kidney patient could understand.

was his BP within usual 'normal' for him?  if he got this much off he must have been carrying excess fluid if his BP was OK.  if it was low, then he maymbe using too strong a bag (if this was a one off,  wouldn't worry too much).  I never show excess fluid on my ankles, it all hides around mymbelly.  maybe he is the same.

That's a really impressive number! I've had some 2000+ UFs, but not much more, and those were impressive. I definitely can feel it when I take that much off. Puling 3500-3800 off in one sitting it huge. Can't imagine more than 5000.

Ed was using a 2.5 bag he alternates between 1.5s and 2.5s. His BP was "normal" for him. He carries his weight in his face and his belly gets hard. So we could see that he was not swollen.

Not worried about it just surprised.
