Considering that I'm borderline end stage although currently stable I may have to face this at some point in the future. Out of the different dialysis options which have you preferred. Also which one had the least impact in terms of interfering with you life?

Hi, I have progressing kidney disease and currently my previous conversations about dialysis have been around peritoneal dialysis.
I've been curious about home hemp though as it seems to give a more natural routine and there are some downsides to PD that done appeal.
How do you find your quality of life on home hemo? How intrusive to your life of you find it? Any pitfalls to be aware of?

Thanks for sharing your experience I appreciate it. I was actually diagnosed in my early 20s and that was about 10 years ago, so it's good to hear someone who has been in a similar boat rather than the usual stories I hear which are from much older people.
I've been lucky so far that with treatment my decline was slowed but I've been losing function over the years and I'm getting to the point where it's low enough that I'm exploring things like transplant and dialysis. Fortunately Im not at the critical point yet though
