Hi Everyone,
I hope you are all well, and everyone is doing okay. I just want to let you know about my first app is on Google Play Store - iDialysis.
Here is a bit of history, I've was suffering from Stage 5 End Stage Kidney failure, This happened two years ago and it was all of a sudden. I didn't realise for 3 months, I had a bp of over 200. When I thought I had an cough, it turned out to be something very serious and fell into a coma. I had about 10% chance of living, but thank god, I pulled through, but the virus had killed my kidneys, so I had 5% working. So I was on dialysis. Last year while doing dialysis I wanted to record my bp and weight. Looking around there was no app for it, so I went and developed an app, also learned a new programming language which is also cool :)
This was a lifeline for me, as while I was doing dialysis, I was getting depressed a lot. So glad I thought of this. On June 19th 2013, I had a kidney transplant from my little brother, I'm sore, but doing well. I've devoted my time in fixing the bugs and finally published the app on Google Play
The application allows you to record your blood pressure, you weight before and after each dialysis session and if you are diabetic then your blood sugar level
This is then presented in either a table format or graphs. The idea being that the patient can see at what days their bp level spiked or was to low to help them through it.
The main website will show you screenshots, etc and you can also click on the Google Play store and download the app for free.

By the way, if there is anyone who knows a person using dialysis, then point them to this link (if they have an android phone, iOS is coming soon), if people can share this, it will be much appreciated :) )
Kind Regards

Hello,
I like your app.
It's nice you got a match in your brother.
Another dialysis app that would be great is one to record PD #s drains, time/date and fluid concentrations.

Many thanks for your kind words Sydnee, it possible I could add that in, or build another app. As my experience created the app, I would need info for PD people, is it just those that are needed? Or more?
Kind Regards
