Peritoneal dialysis is a type of dialysis that people do while they go to work. There are also various ways you can do hemodialysis in your home that can make dialysis more compatible with work.

There are a number of medicines that you can take to slow or even reverse your diminishing kidney function - which medicine or strategy depends on what is causing your kidney disease. If it is diabetes or high blood pressure - two leading causes of kidney disease - controlling those underlying conditions can slow the progression.

Often when the kidney disease is caused by damage to the nephrons - the little filters in the kidneys that do all the work - steroids and anti-inflammatory drugs will be tried. If you are ever in doubt that you are receiving the best care from your doctor you should always feel comfortable getting another opinion but sometimes getting the best medical care available is still not enough to save the kidneys.
