Day 38 9:19am 2/18/2010

Yawn!… So I learned that when a person yawns while on dialysis that it is a sign that their blood pressure is dropping. And you know what.. It is true! So one of the drawbacks of pulling to much fluid of my body a little to fast caused low blood pressure. And since I am over my dry weight they need to really work at pulling the extra fluid off within my 3 1/2 treatment. (life would be so much easier if I could pee… stupid kidneys)

PSA announcement: Please people take care of your kidneys you only get two.

Anyway with low blood pressure one can pass out at some point. Call me sick or crazy but I am curious to really find out what that point is. For the last hour I have been trying to write but I am battling with low blood pressure. When it gets pretty low the machine starts to alarm and people come over and sit me back to get my pressure back up. One day I will man up and ride that low blood pressure to my limit and once and for all know what it is like to pass out. (again.. sick and twisted.. I know!)

Ah what to do today??I have the entire evening free and wide open. Part of me wants to get past my photographic block and take some pictures but I don’t think that is going to happen just yet. I have not touched my camera in weeks. I hate these blocks…

As you can tell my post have gotten longer. Today I finally completed copying my facebook entries over to the blog. I spent most of the morning at dialysis on my hybrid mac typing away. Hopefully with the ability of having less restrictions on the amount I can write (unlike in facebook) my post will not be vague and expressive.
