Starting dialysis can bring challenging side effects that affect both your body and daily routine. These treatment adjustments take time, and it's completely normal to feel overwhelmed as your body adapts to this new therapy. Consider discussing these symptoms with your healthcare team, as they may be able to adjust your treatment plan or suggest ways to manage the nausea and fatigue you're experiencing.

Hello Aquila! The treatments can feel like torture sometimes, staying strong mentally is the most important! Keep reminding yourself that it’s going to get better and keep moving forward. Thoughts and prayers for you! 🙏

Hi! Aquila, one of the things that helped me was I would ask for and get extra hydration. Usually a couple days after, but it did help! I know everyone is different but I hope it helps! 🙏
