[|Human|] After dialysis last night, I went to the grocery store. The entire time I was at the store, I felt light-headed and weak. When we got back in the car, my entire body became achy, the way it would after a work out. By the time we got home, I couldnt even get myself out of the car and my arms, legs, stomach and neck began cramping. After a few hours, I felt fine but it started up again this morning. (Once again, in the car.) I am still feeling a little weak now that I am at work, but no feeling as achy. I saw my doctor yesterday and he told me that my potassium level is at 4.4. After my treatment, I was still 1 kilo over my dry weight Im not sure what this is from and it is really scaring me. Any ideas what could be causing this?
[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. As a Urologist, I can understand your concern. You should mention your age and other medication being taken.It's advisable for you to rest for a day, after each dialysis session. There can be electrolyte(Na and K) and blood pressure changes, after a dialysis session. Salt is also very important factor in cramps after dialysis.You've to observe diet and fluid advice, very strictly. Especially salt, protein and fluid restriction are important. Hope your doubts are cleared and cramps are avoided in the future.
