Dialysis is a very hard row, but it is also difficult to be the primary caregiver. I worked as a social worker in a dialysis unit which was in a hospital. It was my first social worker experience. I will never forget it.

On the me side of things....frustrated. I have to find a way to exercise five times a week optimally but four could be acceptable. Getting around is so much harder I have noticed over the last five werks. I have lost a!it of strength due to the inconsistent e,decide with the heat and humidity. It wasn't worth it. I should have sweat. Work is throwing a wrench into this too. Saturday spent the day in bed pretty much...never got dressed. Sunday I had a good day but only did one of my exercises, yesterday I had to be at work at 6:30 am and as a result of getting up at 5:15 am was very very tired for the rest of the day. DID exercise today, but this simply has to get better because I won't even be able to keep my job...my mobility has decreased that much!!
