Hi, welcome to our site. I am Dr Saumya Mittal.

Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query

I am not sure what is the cause of kidney dysfunction. But we do need to take a look at that. In causes like diabetes, tight control may help. Avoiding pain killers and other nephrotoxic drugs is important.

besides, I understand that he may not want to do hemodialysis. its uncomfortable and inconvenient. however have you discussed the possibility of CAPD, or peritoneal dialysis with your doctor?
once he is trained at it, he can do it at home, and be mobile and everything can be done normally

So i think that may be a good option

I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above so i can be of help further. Best of luck.
