That sucks. I did the overnight thing for a couple years. You can mostly live normally. Though even on the overnight run your energy levels get drained super easy.

The more you know!

As someone who underwent a kidney transplant 10 years ago (albeit donated by a family member) This means a great deal for that stranger.

A new kidney is like a new life. Dialysis and barely functioning kidneys blow chunks.

Also peritoneal dialysis requires some level of remaining kidney function. If you kidneys are completely munted, pd won't work.

For me PD was really ineffective for some reason. Constant high blood pressure, a couple visits to hospital, super sucky. Hemo worked really well. The needles take a bit to get used to but once you know what your doing, you can live a relatively normal life.

This was on overnight in home. Going to the clinic for it would suck, and your life expectancy is a lot shorter.
