    just got the news this morning, kidneys are shot. Beng trapped in hospital, it's hard to get Average Joe's point of view.

    My mother was on dialysis for years. She was on dialysis on an out-patient basis. Follow the diet they give you, track the foods you eat (because some can/will cause you issues) and it makes it easier. She didn't stick to the recommended food regimen and was always having issues because of it. Not much more I can pass on since this was over thirty years ago.

    Sorry to hear you are having problems.

    Dialysis Centers on every corner here in the Houston area. Had a friend who did OK for years. They would even come and get her for treatments.

    If you are not on Medicare now I believe you can get on Medicare right away when you need dialysis.

    I work for DaVita see if you can get on the at home dialysis. Eventually you'll have to go in for treatments but until then its less intrusive.

    I'm an IT Engineering manager so I don't know much about it but make sure you follow their diet exactly.

    Gunz are icky.
    Mother was on it for years.
    She would not follow the diet rules and was always having issues.
    Salt was a big no no.
