I am supposedto start Dialysis in a couple of weeks. Can you guys tell me how you felt before Dialysis. I know we have discussed being tired all the time... I am so tired that I barely find the energy to get dressed for work in the mornings. it seems that it takes me 45 minutes longer to do that everyday. I feel so weak an not hungry and just want to sleep. I am hoping that when I start Dialysis I feel better. I am just wondering how others have felt.

What type of dialysis are you doing?  I am doing peritoneal and that is all I know about.  Once I got started my energy level seemed to pick up and I feel better more constantly.
