Arg! The numbness in my left foot is driving me crazy today. It was not that bad this morning but started getting worse as soon as I sat down in the dialysis chair. I’ve been watching YouTube videos and thought a lot of time has passed but in reality, it was only about an hour. There is still 2:35 left on the dialysis machine. Where is my fast forward button?!
I’m in a new seat today. Not sure how the musical chairs work but I’m in the “other” corner of B pod. I hate sitting in the corners. You feel even more. Isolated from everyone and everything.
I also was able to take a clear look at another patient’s fistula. It’s in his forearm, purple, and about 1 x 2 inches in size. I hope my doesn’t end up looking like that or worse. It’s super ugly and gross.
