Today I did take my Caffeine, the usual dose of 700 mg total because I am worried that my blood pressure might fall because I did planned to achieve a lower dry weight than what I am previously targeting.
Thankfully my BP just held not lower than 100 systolic and by the time my treatment session ended I already got back the 120 systolic although they will now just let me go if my BP will just be 110 because my pre-dialysis blood pressure is only 130.
So as you can see my blood pressure doesn't veer-off too high because I am not getting too congested with fluids anymore as I have reached my desired weight or maybe close to it.
My measuring tool for the best dry weight that I want to achieve are my middle ears, if they would collapse inside then I am just adequately removed with extra fluids even though still I am not totally sure about it because there may still be some lingering fluids particularly in my lungs.
My lungs have to be cleared with fluids because it will not be good if there will be always some fluids there which unfortunately doesn't resolve in my case because I can still feel it even now with that faint gurgling sound and it gets worse when I am nearing my dialysis schedule.
I am still worried if I will be given a clearance by my pulmunologist for a much earlier dialysis schedule because of my lung fluids that never seems to clear-up. But maybe who knows if I do have a tuberculosis and it is responding to the Rifampicin/Isoniazid then maybe I will get cleared soon.
But for the meantime I have to endure that extra bill that is charged to me by my dialysis center and it is really a pain to the pockets because I could have used that money for my other medical necessities and yet now it would go to the dialysis center.
The money that we are charged with is to the third set of patients each treatment day. I mean that our batch has to bear the burden and not to all patients. It is just not fair but that is the decision of the hospital which is why it is pointless to point that out or even mention it since the nurses have no involvement about it anyway.
I just want to get cured of what the pulmonologist says that I have so that maybe I will also get to gain weight and get strength back, I needed more prayers or miracles if God wills it for me.
