My husband has done home hemo since June 2016 and we love it. Is there anyone in Canada that is using the NXStage one on here. We are very interested in this for travel purposes. I have read before that the travel dialysate solutions were not yet approved in Canada. Does anyone have any information? We are in Nova Scotia and the machines are currently not available to us.

I wonder why... even to have the option to sign a few out in the home center for vacations would be amazing

Del was getting close to training with her husband before he passed but it sounded like at least Newfoundland was going to try it.

Thanks for your info. I think it's a positive sign that they are hiring in Canada. We are always a bit behind the states but I was floored when I realized how long people have been using this in the states. I also saw they were using them in.. Winnipeg? I do believe. Do you mind posting the link in your second paragraph again. It doesn't take me anywhere when I click it.

http://www.cannt.ca/files/Annual 20Report 202016 20- 20Oct 204.pdf

It is an odd looking link, Google returns it as the top result if you search: CANNT ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AGENDA October 28, 2016


Meanwhile this link seems to work  ???
