Hi,
Dizziness is a very common complaint in patients undergoing dialysis.
Its because of low Blood pressure if the dialysis machine removes excess fluid in the blood.
It will take time for the body to get adjusted to dialysis process and fluid loss.
If it persists, reporting the problem to the doctor is important as they can adjust the settings of the machine accordingly and so that it removes the right amount of fluid.
Kindly talk to the doctor about your concern.
