Still feeling bad despite new Cath

[SweetyPie]

Im just happy im off sensipar. I really feel so bad when i hear people have to take this medicine because insurance has a problem paying for it and patients hate taking it because of the side effects

Sensipar is now part of the Medicare "bundle".

Update: today I came into dialysis having only gained .2... can I please be applauded for that. That takes work. Anyways they set the machine to remove 1.7 I think that is my new max. I went through the whole treatment. After an hour and a half my blood pressure dropped ( i could tell, I wasnt feeling good) so they turned it off for 10 minutes. That mini break seemed to let my body recoopeerate. They did profile 5 which removes fluid takes a break then starts to pull again. So yes, treatment was bearable today. Thank you God

Glad you had an easier session. Hopefully they can find a setting that makes it easier all, or most, of the time. It's hard enough as is without constant wondering if something is going to go wrong.  And definitely applause for the .2.
