Hi There,
Greetings from Ireland!
As someone who's been "lurking" for about a year now, thank you so much to all for a great site!
I was diagnosed with Kidney Disease about 2 years ago. Pretty much end stage even then! I had a fistula op shortly afterwards, and all seemed fine. I started dialysis about 2 months ago, and after about 5 weeks of trouble with the fistula (sometimes taking 5 or even 6 "go's" to get the cannulation working) now everything seems fine on each visit.
I'm attending Cork University Hospital three times a week - and judging by the experiences I've read here by some people, I can state that it's probably the best dialysis centre in the world - staffed by the most caring & professional staff ever! :thx;
Anyhow - that's about it - good to say hi - gotta fly & do some work......
Talk soon,
Enda.

Hello Enda, and welcome to IHD. I'm so glad you joined. I do like this site in the fact you can just lurk and learn. But, it is nice to meet you.
I'm glad your center is a good one.
