Managing dialysis treatments can be a stressful and difficult process. It's important to understand how often you should have your dialysis treatments, as reducing them too much or not enough can lead to health complications. Generally speaking, it is recommended to have dialysis three times per week for hemodialysis patients. However, this frequency may vary depending on individual factors such as age and overall health condition. Along with managing your treatment schedule, there are other things you can do to make the most of your dialysis experience like exercising regularly, finding support from others in similar situations, managing stress levels, and minimizing pain.
