Almost Ten percent of global population is suffering from chronic kidney disease, a progressive condition in which kidney function deteriorates. There are five stages of CKD. In Stage 1 there is little damage and by Stage 5 the kidneys have lost most of their function and there’s a need for renal replacement therapy, such as dialysis or a kidney transplant.
There is decreased immunity in kidney disease so getting vaccinated for Pneumonia, influenza, Varicella and Hepatitis B is advised
In a nutshell coping with renal disease is made easy with better understanding about the disease, better preparation for renal replacement therapy and a positive attitude for life
