Trying to sort out the facts behind protein intake and CKD
In addition, I was told during my
dialysis
orientation (not on
dialysis
yet() that when I start peritoneal
dialysis
. they will ask me to consume 1.3 g/kg weight per day. I see a number of people advocating plant based diets,. so I asked my nephrologist about this.

Good news
She said back then to prepare for
dialysis
within six months. I had been progressively declining monthly. Went from stage 3 to 4 within a short time. I am so thrilled to report my labs today from the last three months were wonderful. Improvement across the board. GFR up one point.

Any Advice?
I still have scars on my stomach from the catheters and whatever else I was hooked up to (I'm assuming
dialysis
). I'm told I have or had Hemolytic Euremic Syndrome.

Gfr 10....choosing conservative management
After considering age and other medical problems, my husband has decided on conservative management instead of
dialysis
. Is it possible to hold at 10 or even rebound a little for a while? Also, the nephrologist suggested Renadyl. Anyone have experience with that? Thanks for any response.

Thank you all
Update: all family members all agreed that mom will not have
dialysis
in the future... Due to her age; turning 80 plus other conditions that she has, we feel that
dialysis
will not benefit her. I also thank and pray the lord to watch, guide, protect all of you.

Recurrent IgA nephropathy and back on dialysis
I would love any diet or lifestyle advice for me to support me during my 2nd time on hemodialysis since transplanted 10 years ago. I am a recurrent IgA patient and am being evaluated for kidney transplant.

Is vasculitis life threatening?
Initially we were told that he had CKD and possibly needed
dialysis
and then we were called into a meeting with 2 consultants who told us that it was 99% sure that Vasculitis was the problem.

Frequency of Dialysis Treatments
I am currently doing 2
Dialysis
Treatments per week, every Monday and Friday with each being a 4 hour run. Does anybody else do 2 times a week or does everybody do 3 times a week? And how long is your run?

Third time is the charm!
Had my 3rd transplant December 11, 2017 after being on
dialysis
about 6 years. So very happy and praying I can keep this one for at least a good 80 years, lol. Now focusing on losing some weight and getting back into the workforce.
