Hubby has been struggling with eating. He is so tired and beat when he gets home from work, that he doesn't work to eat. I spoke with his renal dietitian today. She said there is only one supplemental shake that is recommended for dialysis patients and that is Nepro. Nepro is a high protein, low phosphorus and low potassium shake. It is also expensive. Only one store carries them locally and that is Rite Aid. For a box of 4 8oz shakes it is $16.
I gave the company a call and through their very friendly customer service found that they would send us some coupons for the shakes. I also found out that for dialysis patients they offer a special price on a case of 24. They said that the dialysis unit would need to fill out a form for the better price, but I definitely think it is worth the extra work. Just make sure you like the shakes before purchasing a case.
I hope that your husband is doing okay. Having a kidney disease can be hard. From my experience, it is an everyday struggle. Good thing I have my family and friends with me to help me with my condition. And my doctors are quite helpful too. They recommended a few brands for vitamins for kidneys. I take ProRenal from Nephroceuticals. You can check it out here: http://nephroceuticals.com/prorenal/products/
