I Wanted To Re-Adjust Down My Dry Weight Today At Dialysis ⚖

I am just wondering if what is my real dry weight because the last time that I went to readjust it further down I still feel that I needed to shave some water weight in my system. Well I wouldn't be so surprised if I am that emaciated already because I wasn't really able to eat that well for more than 2 years now after taking my parathyroid medicine which I myself is just surprised that I survived that long already having to zero to minimal appetite.
Now I have to brave it some more and take off about 300 mL of water from my system so that I could get near the 35 kilos goal. Then after this one God-willing I will do it again until I feel the tell-take signs of having enough water was drawn which is the collapsing in of the ear drum which happens when water in the head/body was more than adequately sucked up leaving a negative pressure for the ear drums as they are pulled back in.

That is when you know that you are more than adequately drawn-out with excessive or extra water form your system. At that point I my goal would be to ask my nurse with a much faster blood pump with extra 25 mL at a time until I reached the 300 mL blood pump and I am hoping that my Caffeine therapy would not fail me otherwise things would collapse and leave me at the starting point.
So with an adequate clean factor and an adequate water outtake from my body would make me feel much better and I might not think about three times weekly dialysis since the caffeine might also attack me with its insomnious side-effect.But I just have to compromise Caffeine intake because I couldn't afford a crashing BP because it is taking a toll on the quality of dialysis that I am getting plus the extra water in my body is very hard to endure already which prompted me to take measures against it rather than to rely on my nurse's judgement where they just rely on charts and records. Now they have the reason to conform to what I wanted because my BP is not crashing already.
I understand my nurses in being so apprehensive doing the things that I wanted because time and time again my blood pressure just plummets down like a an asteroid that wipes out the dinosaurs. I mean it sometimes go down as far as 50/60 or something like that even though I have already eaten a lot which I know is not the golden factor in stabilizing the blood pressure at dialysis. I could use some other drugs but it would not be easy to acquire such drugs since caffeine itself is a drug that I already proven to raise the blood pressure substantially enough that I am now able to finish my session successfully.
