  Hello. Very grateful to have found this sight...I HATE DIALYSIS certainly got my attention!
 I started HD a couple of months ago and am coping fine at the moment because I am very lucky to have great support from close friends         and family. The nurses on my unit are fabulous too. I have lots of questions and thoughts I want to share with those 'in the know' so very glad to have found you...

Hi Iona, and  :welcomesign;!

I'm glad your experience of haemoD is so far a fairly positive one (as far as it can be!) ... ask away with the questions; there's always somebody who has an answer or can point you in the right direction!
