Thanks Henry, I also wish you a very Happy New Year and may your good luck continue.

I shall keep trying very hard myself and hope for good luck.

Perhaps there is another chance, who knows?

Best wishes from Kristina.

Thank you and happy new year to Henry P. and everybody  :clap;  :2thumbsup;  :yahoo;

For a guy who play with rocks all day, Henry, you are full of grace  :)

It is 9:34 PM in the US East coast and the new year is almost here.  It is threads like this that reminds us that even though it has been a tough year, we have a lot to be thankful for.

Newbie caretaker, so I may not know what I am talking about :)
Caretaker for my elderly father who has his first and current graft in March, 2010.
Previously in-center hemodialysis in national chain, now doing NxStage home dialysis training.
End of September 2010: after twelve days of training, we were asked to start dialyzing on our own at home, reluctantly, we agreed.
If you are on HD, did you know that Rapid fluid removal (UF = ultrafiltration) during dialysis is associated with cardiovascular morbidity?  http://ihatedialysis.com/forum/index.php?topic=20596
We follow a modified version: UF limit = (weight in kg)  *  10 ml/kg/hr * (130 - age)/100

How do you know you are getting sufficient hemodialysis?  Know your HDP!  Scribner, B. H. and D. G. Oreopoulos (2002). "The Hemodialysis Product (HDP): A Better Index of Dialysis Adequacy than Kt/V." Dialysis & Transplantation 31(1).   http://www.therenalnetwork.org/qi/resources/HDP.pdf
