Once kidney disease progresses to kidney failure, regular dialysis is recommended. However, if patients would not like to undergo dialysis, what should they do?

Most kidney disease patients may not know clearly about the function of dialysis and its side effects. In their view, dialysis needs much money and people are easy to be dependence on dialysis, so most people do not start dialysis. When doctors tell them they should begin dialysis, they feel like the sky is falling.

Mr Lai coming from Jiang Xi experiences this himself. He was diagnosed with chronic nephritis and kidney dysfunction due to edema of lower extremity. At that time, his urine protein is 2+ and serum creatinine is 150umol/L. He took medications to treat swelling and urine protein. Swelling disappears and urine protein changes into negative. Mr Lai stopped treatment. Unluckily, he experienced dizziness, vomiting and nausea as well as other symptoms so he was hospitalized again. At this time, his serum creatinine amounts to 902umol/L. His Kidney disease has developed to uremia during the short period of two years.

He does not know dialysis. But when doctor recommended dialysis to him, he refused absolutely.

He comes to our hospital to accept treatment instead of dialysis. Yan Lixue is his doctor. When testing for his kidney function, doctor Yan says that dialysis is proper for his present condition. But he refuses absolutely. In this condition, Doctor Yan recommends conservative treatment.

In fact, the function of dialysis only cleans small molecular substances from blood but it can not stop their regeneration. However, purifying blood does not simply cleanse small molecular substances, it has other functions.

We use Chinese medicine treatment to purify the blood. Although it works slowly, it can stop kidney cells from necrosis and help recover kidney function. In this way, blood can purify itself. Therefore, therapeutic effect of Chinese medicine treatment is much better than dialysis. You should know machine can not replace kidney completely.

The treatment experience of Mr Lai proves that kidney failure does not always require dialysis. The key point of treatment is which treatment you take.
