2014-04-17 01:09

Dialysis is life-prolonging, but it brings many other symptoms, such as skin itch and muscle cramp. Sometimes patients do not die of kidney failure, but these side effects. Does dialysis make the patient exhausted? The answer is certain. There are many factors that can contribute to the fatigue.

Low blood pressure

If too much fluid is taken away from your body during dialysis, low blood pressure occurs and then you may feel exhausted.

In this case, you should pay attention to your fluid intake between the dialysis sessions.

Physical inactivity

For dialysis patients, especially hemodialysis patients, they have to go to the dialysis center several times a week. And every time they have to sit there for four to five hours. It is easy for you to feel exhausted.

Inadequate dialysis

If your dialysis is not adequate, wastes and toxins will build up in the blood. They can make you feel tired as well.

Anemia

Anemia may be also a contributor to your fatigue. It is caused by kidney function impairment. When there are not enough red blood cells to transport oxygen and nutrient, you will quickly lose your energy and feel exhausted.

Fatigue is just one of the side effects of dialysis. If you would like to boost your energy and get rid of dialysis, you should improve kidney function. In our hospital, Polluted Blood Therapy is often used for Kidney Failure Patients.
