🩺 National Hypertension Awareness Week is a critical reminder:
High blood pressure often has no symptoms, but it can silently damage your body, including your kidneys.
For dialysis patients, the connection goes both ways—kidney disease can make it harder to control blood pressure, creating a dangerous cycle.
That's why it's so crucial for dialysis patients to regularly monitor and manage their blood pressure as part of their care. Awareness can save lives.
