Exercising is more than a lifestyle; it’s a mindset. Everyone knows that physical exercise is beneficial and necessary to stay healthy, but does that mean that everyone is doing it? Of course not. You either believe in it or you don’t. For the gym rats who have been exercising for most of their lives prior to dialysis, getting diagnosed with kidney disease is one of the most disheartening events in life, and there may not be too much support in the community where you live. In addition to symptoms like nausea, shortness of breath, and chronic fatigue, you might experience side effects like neuralgia from taking medication. A-1 Home Care in Corona del Mar provides full Kidney Care support 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Staying Motivated to Exercise with Companion Care
If exercising was not your part of your lifestyle prior to the diagnosis, it’s never too late to begin a routine or program. Bring a live-in caregiver with you to the doctor’s before you partake in vigorous activities. In addition to increased energy levels, you’ll also experience the following benefits of exercise:
- Decreased level of cholesterol and triglycerides
- Better weight management
- Improved muscle strength
- Better sleep
Doctors usually recommend that you exercise in 30-minute increments or less, depending on your strength and energy levels. If you start feeling chest pain, dizzy, or other symptoms that make it difficult to exercise, you should stop right away and not over-exert your body.
During the times when you feel too exhausted to do anything, you can rely on a helpful 24-hour caregiver to assist you with meal preparations, light housekeeping, errands and transportation anywhere in Corona del Mar and beyond. Round-the-clock caregivers are especially instrumental when you need help going to the doctor’s and it’s too unsafe for you to drive on your own.
