So the second test came back at 1.71 which barely clears dialysis adequacy. I also missed one urine collection so there was a bit of fudging on the numbers. The conclusion was that I’m ok for now but may need to increase dialysis next month. The higher value was also from using all 2.5% solution so if I mix concentrations, the clearance is less.
This weekend, I been feeling tired and nauseous. If I cough deeply, it would trigger a bout of vomiting. Needless to say, I haven’t been able to eat for a few days and my weight is way down. A few weeks ago, I was as high as 110 kg. Today, I’m down to about 101.5 kg which is almost 20 lbs. It’s all fluid of course… the swelling in my face and legs are way down. My only fear is that using all green solution will pull too much water out and I start cramping.
