Chronic kidney disease & mental health

Chronic kidney disease & mental health

hello everyone

i have found some information on the sane forum for Kidney disease and mental health

i thought i was feeling ok with being diagnosed with kidney dease stage 4 with only one kidney

which means my only one kidney is working at 21%

now my specialist is wanting me to register to go on the kidney transplant

I am feeling so tired and sometimes it is hard to keep on keeping on

i am feeling soo many emotions at the moment

i have forms to get started to go on the list for a transplant

i also have diabetes which makes it hard and sometimes feeling overwhelmed

my mr shaz wants to be a living donor , he will have to go through the same tests as me

Re: Chronic kidney disease & mental health

Dear @Shaz51 ,

i am so sorry that your kidney function has become so poor that you need dialysis. I think you need to do what you think is correct for you and your situation. But think carefully about putting off moving forward with the fistula. You can have dialysis for a while without a fistula. But if you know you are going to be having this long term then I would reflect carefully and just get on with it and look after your health.

my thoughts are with you on this one and I am sure you will do what is right for you

Might not have to be used straight away but it will be ready when I do need to have dialysis down the track
