I've been on the dreaded machine going on seven years. I mentioned I'm Gay cause, I'd like to meet other Gay Dialysis patients; to lend support & receive it when needed. We tend to stick together- and have special needs, and understand how those needs, can bring us together. We will help each other with problems like lonelyness,depression & all the awful major changes having ESRD & being "on" that terrible/wonderful machine,brings to our life. Please write to me, or post here!

Namaste
Harry

Seems to me that would not be the most important subject in an introduction. Your lifestyle is your business, maybe you should keep it that way until you get know other members.

Other than that...  welcome.
