muscle aches

« on: November 26, 2012, 07:33:00 PM »

I've been on the cycler for about 2-3 weeks now, 2 green bags for 8 hrs each night. this morning I developed achy joints and I'm not sure why. I have not done any unusual activity or exercise. I was just wondering if PD might be causing this? could this be a sign of potassium too high or too low? or some other electrolyte imbalance? Has anyone else experienced this?

Call your nurse. She/He is there to answer questions for you. The nurse wants to know what is going on with you.

Why are you doing two green bags, have you a lot of fluid to move?

yeah, I think they think I have a lot of fluid to remove, although I don't think so. but i think i've figured out why i have the muscle pains. I forgot to take my prednisone for two days in a row. not a good thing to do. i've done it before and had similar problems.
