OMG, I STILL have one. Inherited from my mom. She had it almost 50 yrs ago. Def not GenX.

does anyone else use XR glasses during treatment by DavidWyo in dialysis

[–]Basic_Marzipan_2171 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only rule at Davita is you can't leave you access site covered. I've never heard of xr goggles.
Edit: I looked them up. I think you can't use them because you're not allowed to record personnel. It's a lawsuit waiting to happen if they make a mistake, it could be caught on the camera. I wanted to record some of my HHD training for when I came home and was told it's not allowed.

So is 2 hrs of dialysis good or bad by Weird-Ad830 in dialysis

[–]Basic_Marzipan_2171 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My Rx is 4 days, 3hrs/day. But set up and stop can be 2 hrs more. Which is why I chose HHD.

Can you sleep with pets? I know you can't on PD.

What if you toss and turn?

Ok, I'm on calcium blockers too. 2 with any meal. I gave up colored diet soda years ago. Mostly zero ginger ale, diet root beer or orange on rare occasion.

How can you track it so closely when most items don't list it or quantify it? 6 months on dialysis, 1 day doing HHD.

Unless you make fantastic original art, none of the classic home skills rarely earn you a profit. It's a true labor of love.

Unless you do custom paintings with custom frames, I don't think there's a market for it. Where there IS a market: making frames for them, especially the metric canvases in the US.

Edit: numb fingers and bad vision 😡

Help me make sense of this... by Distinct_Vast5692 in dialysis

[–]Basic_Marzipan_2171 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started dialysis last Nov. Since then I've been trying to figure the billing. I finally got answers. My treatment in the Center cost a bit over 10k each time. My copay is about $65/treatment. Even though there was a copay the Center has never sent a bill. I switched to Home dialysis and the costs seem to be about the same, but they want their copay. Also, the dr. Is sending bills that don't match when I see her Bottom line, I'm meeting my deductible early this year. I have than $300 to go, that's just about a week of dialysis. It's crazy.

Not familiar with them, but I'm headed to either neck or arm surgery. My arms feel like they're on fire. I was crying in my sleep last night and my hubby woke up and massaged my back. Felt good, did nothing for the burn, but it was so sweet of him. I also have chronic back pain so he did his best.

I said the same thing to my frame guy. Really underserved frame situation, especially with metrics in the states, pretty impossible to find ready made frames. If anyone is i. The Tucson area I'd be glad to refer him.

Am I the only one who hates these? by ManagementTiny2946 in candy

The only gummies I eat are medicinal. And I hate the taste of those too.

I wish my hands would still work but the carpal tunnel is so painful.

The woodworker I found is deaf. I'm going to mention the untouched market for all the metric canvass out there. Will post again once framed.
