i LOVE pd. You will love your freedom! I know i do, and get ready to eat some tomatos, potatos, fries, and oranges. PD makes your potassium low.

Huzzah!  That's fabulous!  My Blokey recently saw the surgeon and has been pencilled in to have his PD catheter put in in about three weeks.  He's very excited too because he HATES hemo with a passion!

Tons better then Hemo!  I have done both and I can't understand why anyone wouldn't do PD if they are able.
