Various kidney diseases can lead to Kidney Failure gradually if uncontrolled, which requires Dialysis or a Kidney Transplant to keep you alive. Well then, what happens if delay dialysis for kidney failure patients?

It is well known that dialysis is the life-saving treatment when the kidneys have less than 15 % of function or even have zero function. To some extent, the treatment of dialysis can help remove waste products from blood when the kidneys fail to work adequately.

It is possible to cause the following the conditions if we delay dialysis.

1. More and more wastes and toxins build up in blood and body.

2. Kidney function decreases persistently.

3. More and more kidney tissues and cells and other organs can be involved.

4. Symptoms and complications become more and more severer.

5. Kidney stops working completely.

6. Death can be caused eventually.

Through the above descriptions, we can see the consequences are very bad if we delay the dialysis.

Well then, can they live longer we choose dialysis as soon as their illness condition progress into renal failure?

Actually, dialysis have both benefits and harms to kidney failure patients. On the one hand, dialysis helps to maintain your body’ balance by removing waste and extra fluid from the blood, keeping the blood’s chemical balance at a safe level and assisting with blood pressure control; on the other hand, long-term and frequent dialysis can weaken the immune system and bring more adverse effects like poor appetite, fatigue, nausea, vomiting and so on.

Frankly speaking, whether dialysis should be applied or not depends on patients’ illness condition. If we can find out the alternative treatment, it is possible to reduce frequency of dialysis and even avoid dialysis. Here, I recommend an innovated treatment called Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy which is one of characterized treatment of Shijiazhuang Hetaiheng Hospital, China.
