I thank God that one of my nurses took heed about my long-standing concern about my dialysis treatment

Hi I found you through the #wewrite. You got a lot to deal with. A sauna suit to lose extra fluids is it used by more people. I understand the lower or is it slover pump but not much of what you write. It good though the nurse listened to you. I hope it will work in a longer term
May I ask how much you are allowed to drink? Does the fluid in food counts?

Hi @xiao-aine, I am much happy now that the changes that I want for my dialysis treatment is done today and for the next succeeding sessions.

It gave me a better well-being while being dialyzed and afterwards because I no longer get to be to thirsty anymore.

But I have to make a compromise of further limiting my fluid intake to not exceed about 2.1 kilos of fluids between session days. It is difficult considering that I am trying to eat more so that I can gain more real body mass.

I also had to change the speed of the blood pump to 250 mL per minute from what I usually request which is 300 mL per minute, all because I want more of my blood to be cleaned and the speed of the pump is related to it although I find it weird that the same nurse told me that one other patient has a better clearance factor with only 200 mL per minute blood pump speed.

Yes, fluid in food counts and so because of that I am making it sure not to eat the soup if a dish is soupy because otherwise it will be harder for me to control my fluid intake.

That is why I always prefer to be in a hot room so that at least it can help me get rid of fluids from my body. Then using the sauna suit can make my perspiration more intense. It feels much better after using it although I have to use it for a longer time than normal so that I can get rid of as much fluids and salt from my body.
