Try not taking the BP meds the next day of dialysis.  See if that helps.  Dialysis tends to crash BP anyway. Be safe dude!

Good to have you back, Dan.   Your friends here knew how worried you were before going to the hospital.  If we can't share stress here, where can we go?  That is part of why we are here.  I missed you in chat last week.  All your "women" missed you   :cuddle;  :cuddle;    4 ounces of Blue Bell?  Isn't that like one spoon full?   :rofl;    "normal" routine?  I don't think we even know what a normal routine is anymore, do we?   Take time to rest and post!

The normal routine will change over the next through weeks.  Relax and let it come to you.

Fourth dialysis treatment last night.  Feeling much better than with the other.  Haven't been up long though.  After coffee I'll know for sure.

no, she said it would take a few days... dry weight... but I think they are getting closer.  she removed less fluid this time and, the doctor came by and took me totally off blood pressure meds.

Hey,  its flooding  here today.  Wild!  glad I'm in for the day.

No bp meds should help the dizzy issue.  Glad it went a bit better this time!  :cuddle;

That's great, Dan.  Being able to take less meds is a wonderful thing.  There is a positive result of dialysis already!   ;)

Sounds like you're doing okay, dan, and that's good to hear.  I hope you'll continue to adjust and continue to feel better.  Even though we're not doctors, we know our bodies best, and I think you did the right thing by stopping the bp meds over the week-end, too.  It's always good to stay on top of things -- the minute you sense something isn't right, and, sometimes, it's okay to experiment A LITTLE, too (don't get carried away with it, though).  Your posts make my day brighter!
