Dear Diary: Dialysis Makes Me Get Excited In Eating

in #onemealaday7 years ago

Nothing compares with the appetite of a dialyzed patient but it depends on several factors like the size and type of the dialyzer that you are using. The speed on which how the blood pump goes, usually the faster the more you will be dialyzed and thee more sugars and protein compounds will also be taken out and it will, mean you will feel weak and hungry.

The feeling of hunger kicks in the moment that things in your blood begins to be taken out and decrease especially the blood sugar and it is not only the waste products are taken out because the dialysis machine cannot choose which molecule to pass out from the dialysis membrane so all water-soluble molecules will be filtered out including the things that your body needs.

But what makes you want to eat is that feeling of freshness that is developing as the dialysis goes on until it ends. But if you can sustain to not eat during dialysis, after treatment you could eat a horse because you will definitely crave for food very much.

That is what I do before because I do not eat during treatment session but would eat before I begin since no one is there to bring me food as I go alone at dialysis on my firsts years until I seek the help of my father to drive me back and forth.

Now since I do not want to crash my blood pressure I just eat. And also because my dialyzer is a high flux type, meaning it will pass bigger molecules like uric acid so along with sugars which has a smaller molecule, it asses easily so I get cleaned very well and get hungry too. Now I just do not want to pass the opportunity to eat well and enjoy my foods in dialysis as it doesn't come very often in my life.
