What Is The Survival Rate With Last Stage Of Renal Failure?
78y old congestive heart failure, severe breathing issues, three time breast cancer survivor on meds, high blood pressure, high cholestrol, diabetes, stage 5 renal failure 15... is dialysis really going to improve or destroy quality of life she has left?? and what is life expectancy on dialysis if she can have it
Thanks for choosing HCM. Dialysis will improve some of her symptoms and the shortness of breath will definitely decrease after dialysis but based upon her previous history I suggest you to manage her with medical management.
