I Am On My Second Experiment And My Plan Is Set
I really do not like what is happening to my blood pressure at dialysis and every time I would request to have my dry weight adjust down I would get the problem of crashing BP. I could tolerate now 80 or 90 Systolic BP but below that to 50 levels I really cannot endure as I get neck pains and my vision blacking out and at that point I would call the nurses and tell them that I feel light-headed.
Then the nurses would initiate their way of infusing saline solution in my system and from there I would feel okay already. But it will not immediately show in the numbers of the blood pressure monitor so they would set the dialysis machine into what they call "Minimum" mode where it will just clean my blood and not take fluids anymore.
Not it seems that eating prior for my dialysis is not working that well. I might now consider my plan of not using Gabapentin for a while and see if it was the culprit for my blood pressure issue. But sacrificing my Gabapentin intake will surely no be good for my well-being particularly for my sleep and body pains as it relaxes my muscles including my guts.
So that will be my experiment for now and if it works then that is the solution for my long-standing problem. Now it is just my concern that of course I will have to give up the only thing that makes me feel good with my body so it saddens me because I feel like everything is being taken-away from me one after the other and I do not like it at all.
Always something ..good luck with your experiment ...:-)
