Hello everyone,

As you can tell I am new to the site.  I have been on dialysis for over five years.  Started out on PD for eighteen months and that failed then went to he mo.  Have been there every since.  I have accepted the fact and am doing OK with the exception of the phosphorous.  It is a little high but am working on taking the binders like I should.  I am sure if I do that the numbers will come down.

I live in the Spokane, Wa. area with my wife and family.  We have been here for over a year after moving here from Florida.  We lived in Florida for ten years and before that it was Alaska for twenty-two years.

Not much more to say other than I Hate dialysis

Hello Papasan!  I live in the Spokane Valley, WA !    ;D   I go to the DaVita on Mirabeau Parkway.  Where do you go?  I've been on dialysis for 26 years.  17 of that was a transplant.  We sure had a nice summer.    Yes, take your binders and don't drink milk. 

I hope you like this site.  It is the only one where you can vent and we tell you the truth.
