Over sensory

Does anybody skin feel slightly different after having haemodialysis, After dialysis my skin always feel so different like over sensory!

Yes!!  Especially over the long weekend. I do a MWF evenings shift and my skin is getting worse lately. Dry and patchy and I cut very easy. I think pulling out the fluid does it. Your skin stretches before dialysis then tightens back up after treatment. Plus the fluid is actually toxins so it can be good for the skin. I've taken to mild liquid soap and even a cream/paste soap rinsing off then put moisturizer on and rinse with hot water. But no matter what I do it still feels weird!!  Does not help that I live in south Florida where 60% of the year it is over 100 degrees and CRAZY humid. And I like to spend a lot of time outside!!
