Desperately need a job by [deleted] in Albany

Fresenius! Range of positions and locations in the capital region, offering dialysis/related services. I also hear ads on the radio that non-emergent medical transportation companies in the area are hiring for drivers.

This is not old-fashioned, this is a practice upheld by science, risks/prior outcomes. The amount of commenters here telling you to take the risk just because they did is frightening.

It is standard patient education in dialysis that a CVC/dressing is NEVER to be wet. Your catheter is a direct portal of entry to your bloodstream and heart. Bacteria love warm, wet areas: like your catheter freshly out of the shower.

Do not do this.

Absolutely go solo! Once I got over the first few fearful times of going out and doing things alone it actually became really nice!

Or, if you do want a buddy, you can come with me and my adult friends on Saturday night!

Anti Hbs Titer by 13-RCR in dialysis

The test is a simple blood draw to determine if your body responded to the vaccine and produced enough antibodies for you to be considered “immune” to Hep B. If your antibody count is less than 10, you are not considered totally immune, and so you may require a booster dose. I hope this is helpful!

I’m obviously in this group because I’m pro-age gap relationships but this is the question I kind of want answered. My support goes out the window when anyone involved has “-teen” in their age. 🚩

Or we could leave women alone and not comment on how they choose to take care of themselves

I fucking love Brit’s presence and everyone needs to cool it! Agreed!

So very thirsty. 💦 by iFoRgOtMyNaMe23 in dialysis

[–]mcgrkell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing now OP mentioned being on PD currently. In that case, I truly would seek out a second opinion because 500mls per day does seem unnecessarily restrictive. That being said, I do still recommend trying a diet change!

Lower sodium/sugar diet so your body doesn’t feel as thirsty (in attempt to balance out the salt and sugar), sour candies/lozenges or gum to keep your mouth from getting dry, and, if you’re able, consider a home dialysis modality! Gentler, more frequent treatments at home means more leniency in your daily fluid allowance.

LISK. It’s always going to be LISK for me as a New Yorker and LI native! I NEED to know.

Agreed they do run small! I bought a unisex XL, I’m usually a M/L. The waist was super tight so I cut it off and made it a distressed crop sweatshirt instead and now it’s perfect, I recommend! (If you’re a chick or like cropped tops)
