I'm new here.  Just discovered the web site. 

I am at this for one year in November.  Started with the thing in my chest.  Eventually my vein was too deep and went through the procedure for raising it.  Then a fistular gram.  All of that was a "pain in the rear", but whatever...

What drives me crazy is being sick (sometimes really sick) the day of my dialysis session.  I think, and the nurses think, it may be related to my dry weight.  I've lost 30+ pounds in the last year.

Any comments or analysis would be appreciated.
