For Renal Failure patients whose kidney function drops to 15% or less, or
they have severe symptoms including shortness of breath, fatigue, muscle cramps,
nausea or vomiting, the doctor may advise to start dialysis treatment. Can you
stop dialysis once start?
Actually, whether dialysis can be stopped depends on patient's renal
function. If he just undergo dialysis and not receive treatment to improve the
functions of the kidneys, he cannot stop dialysis. However, if the kidneys are
treated effectively and recover to the condition that they can work well again,
then you can stop dialysis.
Therefore, you should choose a better treatment as early as possible. In
2012, immunotherapy is the newest treatment for Kidney Failure, which has great
potential to help you get rid of dialysis. For those who have been on dialysis
for many years, immunotherapy can reduce the frequency of dialysis as well as
stop some intake of oral medicines.
