Hi Richard, glad to hear so far so good!! are you feeling better now? i think randy will need to start as soon as they feel the tube has healed enough. he keeps getting sick, and then stays in bed all day and is very tired. how long did you have your tube before you started dialysis? have a great day, luv anne

Hi Richard

Hi, Richard, glad to hear that the PD went well. Don't hesitate to e-mail me if you have any questions, I have done both CAPD and APD (CCPD), the latter I do presently. I'm sure that you will start to feel much more like your old self now that you have started. My general health seems to have improved greatly since I started just over a year ago. love amanda
