I chose it. I live in Canada so we have free Healthcare so it was up to me what I did.

End stage basically means that my kidneys do not function at all and I rely on dialysis to live. I am currently on the list for a transplant.

Hemo dialysis doesn't really feel like anything because the machine is just cleaning your blood. Parateneal feels weird because a machine pumps fluid in your belly so with it you feel really full, like you ate a big meal.

First off congrats on the transplant, I hope it is working well. Having the comfort of being at home was one of the main reasons I chose home hemo. The other main factor was I was able to continue working full time and therefore support my family.

LOL this, I was really sick at one point and my mother as driving me to the hospital and at first she thought we hit an animal but it was just my terrible urea breath.
