Lately I've been feeling tired, and hard to consintrate on things, even my job. I called my neph and he at the time didn't know what was going on but would give me a call back. He hasn't done it yet which I know he will but in the mean time I was just coming to see if you all might have any ideas what's causing this tired feeling. I also stumble over my words as well and sometimes can't remember what I did a second ago.
They also don't remove any fluid
Also had a spike in wait last 3 days.
Here are my lab values for the month:
potassium 3.7
phos 4.9
calcium 10.0
hemoglobin 11.5
iron storage and saturation I can't remember the number but it was good.
dialysis clearence good at 81 percent
PTH levels 500
Albumin I can't remember the number but it was also good.
Any ideas?
protein also good

Just compared your bloods to my husbands and it looks like your calcium is a bit high and also your phos, your hemoglobin looks good,pith looks a bit high. I am going on UK readings and I am not a doctor Talk to your neph or doctor and ok we all feel tired at times but you should not feel exhausted. Get them to do more tests.
