Welcome to our community.  You will find it a caring and sharing community.  In fact, I can say that we have become a family.  You might be new to forums, but this is just the place for you to be.  What I would like is for you to tell us a little more about yourself, and your experience with hemodialysis.  Now that you are newly on PD, we would also like to know how you are getting along with that.
So, keep reading and keep posting.
Here is a group hug from all of us -  :grouphug;

Welcome Ladybug.....I remember how "carefully" I came into the message board area, only to find out there were arms open to greet me!  Everybody has a story, and we learn from each other.....I started hemo June 06, and PD three nights ago! Hope to see more of you :welcomesign;

 :welcomesign;  Ladybug, hope all is going well for you on PD!  I was also cautious, not knowing much about forums,but believe me when I say it was the best choice I ever made.  These people know what you are going through like no other support is actually able to.  Glad you are willing to join us.

Hi Ladybug   :welcomesign;

I started on PD a couple weeks ago too.  This site is a great reference.  A couple times a week I search the posts for some weird symptom I'm having only to find it's not weird, it's normal.    Well, normal for us anyway.
