OK, I went for the repeat blood tests and the results weren't great, but they weren't bad either so I was a tad annoyed.

Any way, food wise I was good all weekend and stuck to low potassium and phosphate foods. I went back to the hospital for more blood tests and my good behaviour has paid off. I should explain that the hospital is over doing the bloods as I am having my heamodialysis line removed from my chest on Friday. This procedure is normally done while you are awake. However, I was awake when my first ever line was put in and it was the mot horrific experience I have ever had......and that is saying something. You don't feel the pain, but there is a lot of tugging and pulling and its horrible. So this friday I am being sedated. Due to previous problems I have had with ever procedure, they are being very thorough, hence all the blood tests. I have to go and have more done tomorrow.

It also turns out that I didn't drink enough over the weekend so dialysis has been a bit painful. This is because I use a machine at night that sucks fluid out, when you don't have any fluid to come out, this can hurt.....

I had a phone call from the transplant co-ordinator on Thursday to say i was being put forward for activation on the transplant list. I've been on dialysis for 2 years in May and normally you would be on the list by now, but I haven't been put on due to all the problems I have had. Needless to say I am still waiting for the phone call to say I am active on the list. However, my husband and father-in-law are the same blood group as me so we are going down that route as well, I don't want to as I don't want to put them through ll this....we have had plenty of arguements about it. I am running out of options though as access for dialysis is now limited due to the problems I have had. Once the line for home dialysis gives up I will be back on heamodialysis and my access for this is very limited too. So I don't have much option.

Well thats it for now, pretty uneventul I know.
