Suffering from CKD stage 3(b) since 1 year but now the condition is not good. It's stage 4 and I think it needs a transplant (as to avoid dialysis). I am not able to find a donar in my close circle. What are the other options to find?

hello

It is the hardest part of most have to go through the same. Other options could be to enroll yourself in deceased kidney program run by your hospital. Talk to your doc about this.

Not sure where you live and your age, wait time varies. in USA it depends upon the transplant center. It could be the best option for you since you do not have living donor.

You are in my prayers . Wishing you luck

Thanks
