Welcome to the HD.com site.  There is an entire section on home dialysis related to CAPD and CCPD.  There are questions, answers and stories over there from our members personal experiences.   Make sure to ask questions and join in any discussion that looks interesting to you.

Ok, first up----- I want to get a laptop...could I use it at dialysis with no internet access , would it run on batteries
                     I can use a plug in on the machine chart
                     would I pay by the minute for using it  -  would I get a wireless
                     the lap top would help pass the time of the long, lonely 4 hours in the chair
