Here are some ...: Take the advantage that your treating doctors have known so much about you through dialysis so ask them for detail. But make sure you're willing to hear what you need to hear not just what you like to hear. Online inquiry for your individual need would not suffice to address your concern to meet your satisfaction.

Um, huh?: Too much phosphorous (PO4) in the blood tends to bind to 2+ cations, like calcium and crystalize in the the muscles (=ouch) among other things, but I have never seen / heard of it 'oozing' out through the skin. The skin's job is to keep "us" in and the "rest" out. Chelation therapy and/or dialysis can rapidly improve this electrolyte abnormality while the source/cause is sought, so please hang on.

Your DR will explain: You go to dialysis. The kidney DR checks various things. ASK what it means!!! You do not need to go on line. You spend hours every week in dialysis with nothing else to do.
