Dear Diary: I Had Forgotten Something On My Dialysis Today

Yesterday was a busy day for me as I waited for my Internet connection to speed up as I tried to post about an exciting event in my village with some screen shots of a cellphone video that I requested my mother to take. Fortunately my mother was able to get in the frame the stars of the afternoon game show so we got lucky with it and I was also not feeling good with some digestion problems so it just didn't make me get some sleep.

I did had some sleep on the late afternoon so all night I was up and steeming with visits to discord when I want to say hi to some friends. All that work just made me so sleepy on my dialysis session today. I had a good and comfortable positioning on my sitting chair and my portable fan is just breezing a g ood air on me so it just made me what I haven't gotten for a while, which is to get some sleep on dialysis time.

I attribute it to the vanishing pain in my back and I am deeply grateful about it. I have no more back pain today unlike before which bothered me so much and a painless day just gave me a very good comfortable dialysis session that I had forgotten to eat my meal which I typically have during dialysis sessions.

Eating is needed sometimes so that we do not get hypotensioned or drop our blood pressure because dialysis takes out salt, sugars, protein compounds, and electrolytes from our body that it causes our blood pressure go down.

Fortunately I survived the dialysis without eating today and my blood pressure just momentarily dropped which shoot right back up again after my session ended. My father actually texted me asking me if I wanted to eat three hours after my dialysis started because I was not asking him about if I wanted to eat.

I missed his text because I was wide asleep, comfortable and dreaming away while hooked up. It was all well after and I did had my lunch after we got home with some fried pork with gravy.

It sure is nice to get a good bit of sleep isnt it :)

I am a bit jealous that you need a fan now though when we are heating our home with fire wood. It is freezing cold winter here now.

I look forward to hearing of the times you go out for a walk and enjoy the fresh air :)

We have a bit of a good weather now here @thediyworld with low humidity and a relatively cooler climate, typical when December comes up to February. But we do need some electric or portable fan or life won't get comfortable with me.
Being painless now gives me a better sense of well-being. I thank God and steemit community, truly amazing.

Yes, the community is great!

My wife and I are praying for you. I did not get your name, if you dont mind, so we can better pray for you.

And what town are you in right now? I was in Manila two years ago and loved it. My wife is from down south from Davao

My name is Arnold Martin
I am from Bulacan Province. My home town is Calumpit.

I appreciate all your prayers and support. @thediyworld

Thank you for your reply. My name is Troy Reid.

My wife Melanie knows your area. Says she has been there before.

I'm glad to meet you Troy and best regards to Melanie too.
Yes this is quite a small country.

Good to know you don't have back pain anymore. I remember once I had severe pain in the flank area, and I thought I would rather die than bear that. Its horrendous. Luckily the pain went away after a day or 2, and thanks God never happened again :)!

Did you get any results about the vitamins deficiency?
Have a nice day :)

I have a low Ionized Calcium in my blood but I am taking Calcium.
No meds for it yet.

Nice you are @cryptopie..
I hope you are be fine every day.

That's good to hear that your back pain has finally gone.

"vanishing pain in my back and I am deeply grateful about it. I have no more back pain today" that's great news my brother! Pardon my ignorance, but can you pass away from dialysis? Be safe and take care my friend. Almost forgot, next year my mom's going home to Cebu for a family reunion! I'm gonna save up some $ and hopefully go with her! I haven't been to the motherland since i was 12 and i'd love to go back! Have a great day!

We cannot just die from dialysis @kenentertainment
It is from the complications that a person would die from like if they have a heart condition.
Dialysis just cleans the blood and complications such as hypotension can easily be controlled.

I did not know that, learn something new everyday i guess. Thanks for answering my question and take care of yourself @cryptopie

Best regards to your trip home.
Summer here is so hot.

Oh i know brother, thanks!

Glad you were able to get some quality rest and still eat afterwards. Enjoy what life has to offer, we must understand that because of your health and slow WiFi it IS VERY difficult to answer back. Your efforts are appreciated in trying to do so. May God continue to bless you with an income here to help you. ❤

@cryptopie. Hello. I wasn't going to write to you, however, recent Deleted Comments by thediyworld has prompted me to do so.

thediyworld as you can see below, has deleted several comments in an attempt to Hide the Truth about him.

His 5 year history on YouTube shows videos of exaggerating stories and claims, including his perception of the weather in Lewiston Michigan USA, and deceptions of his lifestyle on his YouTube channel has brought many people here to Steemit.
Those former viewers have had their comments Seeking The Truth from him Deleted, then ultimately Banned and Blocked from his YT channel.

He is here on Steemit for the easy money.
As you can see, he Up Votes his own comments for money.

Please beware of this person.
He is nice at first meet, but when he no longer is able to exploit a person, they immediately become his enemy.

Good luck in your recovery.

Take care of your health...

I am really impressed by the picture I can not cooperate with him, but I am giving respect and love to him from the bottom of my heart and calling on him to be courageous for the next day.
