my name is Scott , I'm 24 live in England and found this site looking for infomation concerning my future dialysis treatments
i got 13% of my kidneys working and yesterday i saw the dialysis nurses to decide what type of dialysis i wanted i haven't chosen yet but i think I'm heading towards Peritoneal dialysis
my story starts when i was 18moths old i got a bug that eat away at my kidneys i was on Peritoneal dialysis for 6 months then i started urinating nurses say it was a miracle
from then on Ive had around 20-18% working renal function all my life growing up ,with doctors saying i will need dialysis or transplant when i reach my early teens then when I'm 16 then 18 then 20 now all the way to 24 , i see my renal doctor now every 6 weeks but it used to be every 6 months then 3 months then 2 then now down to 6 weeks , doctor says my kidneys will never get better and dialysis is inevitable ,to tell you the truth i dont think too much into it as with me the more i know the more i worry ,
so I'm gonna look through all the forum and see if others have asked some of the questions i wanted to know, looks like a great site and am glad to be a part of it ,thanks again
