What is Dialysis?

Dialysis is a process that substitutes for kidney function when the normal operation of the kidneys is interrupted. In a healthy body, the kidneys serve to regulate fluid levels in the body and filter waste products. Dialysis performs these functions when the kidneys are unable to remove fluid or toxins from the body.

Do you know the signs of Kidney Disease?

Here are only some of the signs of Kidney Disease:

-Feeling increasingly tired.
You have less energy or are having trouble concentrating. A severe decrease in kidney function can lead to a buildup of toxins & impurities in the blood. This can cause people to feel tired, weak, and disrupt concentration.

-Trouble sleeping.
When the kidneys aren't filtering properly, toxins stay in the blood rather than leaving the body through the urine. This can make it difficult to sleep. There is also a link between obesity & chronic kidney disease, and sleep apnea.

-Dry & itchy skin.
Kidneys remove waste. They remove wastes and extra fluid from your body. Dry and itchy skin can be a sign of the mineral and bone disease that often accompanies advanced kidney disease, when the kidneys are no longer able to keep the right balance of minerals and nutrients in your blood.

-Puffiness around the eyes.
You're experiencing persistent puffiness around your eyes. Protein in the urine is an early sign that the kidneys’ filters have been damaged, allowing protein to leak into the urine. This puffiness around your eyes can be due to the fact that your kidneys are leaking a large amount of protein in the urine, rather than keeping it in the body.

-Swelling of feet & ankles.
Decreased kidney function can lead to sodium retention, causing swelling in your feet and ankles. Swelling in the lower extremities can also be a sign of heart disease, liver disease and chronic leg vein problems.

-Muscle cramping.
Electrolyte imbalances can result from impaired kidney function. For example, low calcium levels and poorly controlled phosphorus may contribute to muscle cramping.

If you are experiencing these symptoms speak to your primary care physician and your nephrologist.
