DIALYSIS explained simple | Your Kidneys Your Health | @qasimbuttmd

Dialysis explained simply for those with kidney failure.
Dialysis can be done in one of 3 ways:
In-Center hemodialysis
Home hemodialysis
Peritoneal dialysis

As kidney disease worsens over the years, at around 15% of kidney function or less, you develop severe symptoms of kidney disease. Including SOB, leg swelling, weakness, fatigue, poor appetite, electrolyte imbalances. At that point your doctor will offer dialysis.
