You might be a dialysis patient if... You go grocery shopping and instead of a Chiquita sticker on the bananas, you see a skull and crossbones..  :o

You might be a Dialysis patient if you are on Haemo and wish you were on PD :-\

You might be a Dialysis patient if you know your hospital number off by heart
You might be a Dialysis patient if you know the answers before the Doctor asks them :o

You might be a Dialysis patient if you tell the Doctor what drugs you need, plus what for!

I have a small infection in one of my lines. So had to tell the Doctor which antibiotics to give me for it :o Caught it very soon. So touch wood (Reruns Head >:D ;)) it should be OK.

you go to the store with friends and while they are counting money you are counting on your fingers how many drinks you have had and how many left you are allowed and what size.

You might be a dialysis patient if...............

you think the words "free drink re-fills" is insulting.
you call a motorcyclist, a potential donor.
you can only remember what foods are "bad" for you.
you know more about perscription drugs then your pharmacist.

You might be (married) to a dialysis patient if........................................

The first thing anyone says to you is, "Hi, how is Heph doing?" Followed by a 15 minute conversation in which they prove they know absolutely nothing about ESRD or dialysis and make a fool of themselves by 'trying' to be knowledgeable about it, then throw in at the end, "Oh, and how are you?" Walking off before you have time to even lie and say "OK!"
