No matter if you are working full or part-time job, or you live active life, you can find ways to balance your social life and treatment. As you know dialysis can take a major time of your life so, if you are working at that time and you would like to continue doing that, ask your doctor for advice on how to balance your work with dialysis treatment.
A lot of working hours or a busy schedule may also influence your decision on which treatment method you would prefer – hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. You could always ask your doctor for an advice about best way of balancing your health condition and living satisfying life.
For example, if you work during the day, you may prefer to do dialysis treatment in the late hours, in the comfortable environment of your dialysis center.
You can talk to your employer and find a solution so that dialysis does not interfere with your income and family care. Those of you, who work in an office and use computer most of the time, might consider working for a few hours from the dialysis center, combining work with health.
