Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. In every case of this is available, it should be always accepted to have home dyalisis since this is more practical and may spare you lot of time and be less psychologically traumatic. the obvious advantage of peritoneal dialysis is that regular visits to a dialysis unit aren t required and it can be carried out at home without needing any bulky haemodialysis equipment. One of the main disadvantages of peritoneal dialysis is that it needs to be carried out every day, which you may find very disruptive and another major disadvantage of peritoneal dialysis is that you re at risk of developing peritonitis however this is rarely seen and usually signs of this infection will be obvious so you will consult doctor on time if it happens. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health.
