Title: Good thoughts/energy for anniversary
Post by: pagandialysis on July 20, 2011, 08:04:11 PM
I am asking for some good thoughts/energy/prays for me tomorrow. My anniversary is coming up on Friday and after my last two treatments my blood pressure has dropped very low and I have felt horrible all week. I don't want to be like that on our anniversary after I have put her through so much this week. I plan on asking my tech to take of a little less if they could and I drank less then I normally would too.

Thanks.

Hope you have a good anniversary. Why is your blood pressure dropping, are they taking too much fluid off. Are you dehydrating.

I'm not 100% sure. I went in on Tuesday at 130kg and left at 126.5kg and I felt horrible the rest of that day and yesterday. Oddly enough I came in today at 126.1 so they aren't going to take anything off of me they said just do a rinse. So here is hoping I feel better today because I feel pretty good, not great, this morning!

They are taking me off soon and I feel okay so I should be okay for tomorrow. We shall see what I feel like when I get home though. That's the true sign of how I will feel the next day.

I"m usually tired when I get home, but feel great the next day..

They never take off more than 3kg with me, because that's what I tell them to do.  The first thing I was told, after I was stable, of course, was that I am the boss.  They do what I tell them to do, because it is my body, and it was one of the few things in life that I have full say over.  If I only wanted to stay for 2 hours instead of 4, they have to take me off, although I've never actually done that.  I have made them do things they didn't want to, though..

Last week, when my arm was infiltrated, they wanted to stick me a third time.  I'm lucky to have 3 spots to needle. They blew one, they had one needle in, and they wanted to try for the third spot, and I said no.  Since it blew after the run had already started, and there was blood in the lines, they couldn't just switch the lines for the single needle setup.  They had to set up a whole new machine, which caused us all to be there an hour later, but I didn't care.

But anyway, this is way off the topic.. my point was, you know your body best.  Don't let them bully you into doing anything you don't want to do... hopefully you'll feel great tomorrow
