Well, I had my first dayn of dialysis-from-home. It was...interesting. smiley - erm

The downside. I left the house just after midday and didn't get home till just after 9pm. I have to do this three times a week. smiley - facepalm And apparently that was an "average" session, they can take longer. And because I didn't know I would be out so long I went without my Insulin, leading to a scrabble around the wards to find a suitable shot. smiley - blush

On the plus side, though, I discovered that on top of free transport (taxi fares would have been about £8 each way) I get provided with two decent meals, one cold and one cooked! smiley - chefsmiley - coolsmiley - drool

The battery life on my "Hudl" is more than enough to watch TV through the experience, all the same shows I would have been watching at home anyway. smiley - online2long All I need is a better set of headphones, so I can follow the dialogue over the background noise. smiley - whistle Sue thinks she has found a suitable pair in Argos for me - I'll check them out and get back to her tomorrow. smiley - ta

By the end, it seems that my mind is sharper but my body is weaker. smiley - puff

While I was being dialysed, I watched "Suburgatory", "Archer" and "Supernatural". smiley - cdouble I plan to watch "The Graham Norton Show" before I crash. I'm incredibly tired, and I have a visit from the District Nurse tomorrow. smiley - nursesmiley - blush
