Well David has been on Dialysis for a full week and a day at the dialysis center and things are going well. He is feeling better now that the fluid is starting to come off. They think they have almost pulled all of the original fluid off and now it will be mostly upkeep of keeping the fluid off. It is a constant cycle. Everyone at the center is wonderful. We are both starting to build relationships with many of the nurses and techs. Of course all the ladies love David...he is a very good patient!
We are slowly adjusting to the schedule of dialysis. David went back to work today so this week will be a good test of how he will be feeling working and doing dialysis. I (Alice) am optimistic that things will continue to go well.
David's fistula seems to be holding up well. They are going to try some new things with his fistula to try to get good access each hook up but they will have to explain it better to me once they make a decision because I don't get it...hee hee!
Alice is doing well. I am still working out as much as I can. I am getting up early before work to go workout and that seems to give me more energy during the day and it is the only time I can with our new schedule!
So there isn't really any new updates besides we are doing much better than we were 2 weeks ago!! I pray things stay calm and continue to go well!
I will keep you updated!!
~Alice
