I went to dialysis yesterday and actually came off feeling 'normal' ! , like i hadnt had a session or been near the place !  :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: Wow this is amazing ! Ok , ok so i am paying a small penalty for all this in that im  :puke; everyday since i changed over to HD but hey who cares ! I did ask about it and they said its because of the change over and my body should settle down in the next few weeks. I totally feel like a new person , no more filling up with fluid the same night , no more breathing problems (makes me wonder about the cardio-respiritory diagnosis? ,maybe that shadow is fluid? ) Ok so i still couldnt run a marathon , but i sure feel like i could ! I wanted to buy the nurse that solved this for me a bunch of flowers , but we are not allowed to take them into the unit. Would a 'thankyou' card be fitting do you think?

Yippie!!!!!.... GREAT news, KS... I'm SO pleased for you!!!!....

A card would be lovely... In fact it's better than flowers... It'll be on her desk, or notice board long after flowers would have wilted!.....

Delighted you feel well...

Love to the pawed people...

Oh, that's great Kickie. 

 :2thumbsup;

I think a 'thank you' card would be lovely, far better than flowers, as Darth says.

not allowed to take flowers in? whyever not??? Our girls get flowers all the time and they put them up at the nurses station (which is only a mere matter of metres from the nearest chair) and it's not an issue?!?! weird.
