Wednesday Coffee and Chat -- 18th March 2026

Yes aches and pains today @Jynx

Trouble is knowing when to stop doing things before it is too much

But I did learn that when your kidney is not working properly the toxins builds up in your body causing aches and pains and other problems

This is why the dialysis will be needed in the near future

The dialysis does what the kidney is supposed to do @tyme. @Jynx

@Fluttershy1 ooh yes a butternut squash goes down a treat in a risotto!!

@Shaz51 oh true that would be tough to be able to know when to call it quits - especially if you're enjoying what you're doing! It sounds like it's a delayed effect?

Dialysis still just kinda looming on the horizon with nothing really set in stone? That's hard, waiting is the worst 😞

Hugs for you my deary

(づ ᴗ _ᴗ)づ♡

@Jynx - it’s good with. Pumpkin, beetroot, sundried tomatoes & feta yumoooo

Yes waiting is hard @Jynx

See the kidney specialist again in July

But every thing has to get way worse before you go on dialysis so I have to get ready for it to get worse

@tyme

Yumm @Fluttershy1 😊

@Shaz51 - best combo ever - with cous cous

@Fluttershy1 oooh top tier combo!! Now I'm thinking about making another risotto straight after finishing this one!! 😂

@Shaz51 oh that is awful, knowing you need to wait till you get worse before you can start, but also not wanting to get to that point cos I know once dialysis starts it don't stop...

Does dialysis significantly improve things once it does begin?

@Jynx - hahaha, didn’t think of that, you should have a look on my thread I posted photos of kitties

You stay on the dialysis forever or until you get a kidney transplant

@Jynx , @tyme

Oh true @Shaz51 which I imagine is... more waiting. Sigh.

Wrapping up here soon fam, ty for the chats!! @Fluttershy1 @Glisten 💜
