In this powerful and informative episode of Diary of a Kidney Warrior Podcast, Dee is joined once again by the brilliant Professor Ibi for the third time—this time to dive deep into the essential topic of haemodialysis. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, a long-term dialysis patient, or supporting a loved one with chronic kidney disease, this episode offers clear, compassionate insights to help you navigate the dialysis journey.
Together, they unpack the basics of how haemodialysis works, including vital topics like fluid management, the importance of dry weight, blood pressure monitoring, pump speeds, and the common causes of cramps during treatment. Professor Ibi explains why dialysis sessions are structured the way they are and what happens when treatments are missed or cut short. You’ll also hear practical tips on managing the physical impact of dialysis, dietary considerations, and the realities—both good and challenging—of life on haemodialysis.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone impacted by CKD, offering clarity, empowerment, and encouragement to keep going strong.
