    Diana - my wife Jean has done peritoneal dialysis for over 11 years (the norm is around 8). She has been able to be as "normal" as possible, but cannot walk very far as she has quite severe muscle weakness.

    She recently started Haemo-dialysis and for most people it works quite well and they attend their Haemo-dialysis unit 3 times a week - Jean does Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings, but because her veins are not very good, she is having a real, hard time of it.

    If you have to go on dialysis and get the choice of either Peritioneral or Haemo, try to find out as much as you can on both of them, so you can make a fully informed decision on which one you want to do. If you don't have any choice, that's different.

    If you'd like Jean to have a chat with you about dialysis, we live on the Folkestone Road, I'm sure she will be happy to talk to you about it.
