Welcome into our IHD family Fluffy,
Just wondering why you had to switch from PD to hemodialysis. Thanks for taking an interest in ihatedialysis.com
I like the fact that you have a positive goal of becoming a social service worker. Good luck in your endeavors.

Welcome, Aaron!! I am curious too, as to why you had to start hemo after being on pd for a couple of years. Did you have complicatons with PD?
-
Welcome Aaron. Glad to have you here. I am on hemo for three years now. I hope you do get well enough to go back to school. :canadaflag;

Thanks for all the welcomes :) im looking forward to finally talking to some ppl in the same boat. as to why i had to stop PD its because the doctors said that my peritoneal membrane wasnt working as well as it used to and my adequacy sucked. they said my creatinine was 2700. Even tho i didnt feel any worse than usual they were worried and they started the process of switching me to hemo :-\

Hello and :welcomesign;

they said my creatinine was 2700.
:o :o :o
2700? Holy guacamole! I was transplanted at 560!!! I'm small-built gal and all, but still! I'd have been dead long before 2,700 - maybe readings are recorded differently in Canada to Australia, because I just can't comprehend that.....
Anyway, welcome, from down under :ausflag;

Welcome aboard from another Canadian. I met someone else who didn't start dialysis until she was over 2000 . The doctors couldn't believe it. Stay in touch and let know how things are working out. :canadaflag;
