Question
Basically the stories was about a local police officer who has lupus and has been on
dialysis
for 6 years. His wife wanted to donate a kidney to him and did all the tests and submitted the application forms to the kidney transplant coordinator.

Follow that kidney diet
He thinks that I can avoid
dialysis
, though gfr drops with age. So, whatever you do, follow the advice of the dietitian and embrace the kidneys diet.

Renal Dialysis Side Affects
I started out on peritoneal
dialysis
which I could do myself at home every night. Never felt bad and I was able to travel. After my automobile accident I had to switch to renal
dialysis
. This is my third year dealing with this
dialysis
. It makes me feel dragged out every time.

Need to do more than control Creatinine levels?
As I understand it, high levels of creatinine indicates poor kidney function, therefore if I can lower my creatinine level by some other action or change of diet etc, the poor kidney function would still be present and would continue to decline and eventually
dialysis
would be needed? Am i correct?

1 year and counting.
Yesterday marks 1 year since I started
dialysis
. Some good and some bad days but mostly good. I'm patiently waiting for someone to step up and offer that gift of life, a kidney. Good luck and God bless all of you.

Potentially odd question about dialysis
And I was wondering if anybody has gone on
dialysis
prior to stage 4. I am stage 3a, but I am feeling a lack of ability in regards to what I normally can do physically. I'd like to hold off the fatigue and such and get back to my normal(ish) life.

Getting ready to start Dialysis
Although I am still not showing symptoms Dr feels we should start considering
dialysis
no later than three months. According to my neurologist symptoms are often not seen in PKD patients because the progression is very slow. Not sure how I feel about entering “the new normal”.
