I had been having an issue with my blood pressure as it crashes during my dialysis. So since I needed to have some break from taking it because of nausea and my inability to eat plus some digestive problems, I just went to see if my blood pressure will not crash anymore if I would extend the time of not taking it.
True enough my BP is not crashing anymore and in fact I still have a relatively "ok" BP (Meaning High BP) when the dialysis ended and I also went home much lighter considering that I wore some heavy sandals too.
So I am thankful that my tummy shrunk a bit but not very noticeable although it does made a lot of difference in my well-being. It just means that I have an extra allowance of fluids to take between dialysis and I will not get breathless easily. Since my BP didn't crash too it also means that my real dry weight is a lot lower than I am currently weighing in at.
The bad thing is that I just can't wear weights to cheat them in adjusting my dry weigh lest I would get some soggy pants. So I will just see what I can do because my nurses aren't believing that I weight lesser than today with my body weight. It is like a never-ending struggle to make myself better. Often I just want to rest perpetually because this life seems to be just like what it is, a pure misery behind the skin and its consuming me.
But now I know and I can confirm iy that the cause of my blood pressure crash was my hyperparathyroid medication. That medicine just gives me an equal amount of hardship but I still have to take it for a while until another best option will get viable and I also have to hope for that option.
