Feel Bloated After Dialysis, Fluid Accumulates In Abdomen. Dialysis More Often?
After dialyses I feel so bloated, speciality if I am left over weight. I am 1.47m yesterday after my teatment I have being left at 40kg instead of 39kg. The nurse tell me I should lift my dry wEight by 1/2 kg and I tell them otherwise it is my body I know how I feel. I feel better when left at 39 verse anything over.
I undestand this is a common problem with slim patient. All the fluid accumulates in my abdomen. It looks terrible and feels terrible.
The only solution I have is to have diealyses more often to keep the dry weight normal without having to take to much fluid everytime.

Hi, you are on dialysis , and thinking of the weight, it is the doctors who will decide what to do and when. Dialysis should not be done for controlling weight. Any how if you feel so convey your openion to your doctor, and if he is convinced it is well and good. Thank you.
