Today I arrived for dialysis and the nurses were very far behind. It took me three hours to get in, and then another 4 hours on the machine. This is insane. People who didn't show up for their earlier appointment got to go ahead of me, even though I was there on time and waiting extra. Not only is this frustrating for me, but for my family who takes me and picks me up. Its not that safe for me to drive myself, as sometimes my blood pressure is really low after my treatment. They often hold me over for that too. They shouldn't tell you it takes four hours, three days a week. They should just tell you that for three days a week, you have to devote yourself to the hospital and when they can get you in at their leisure.
