Welcome to e health forum.

Regular change in medications and blood tests also are important to check for progression or ‎improvement of renal disease. Based ‎on electrolyte levels (phosphate, uric acid, etc) appropriate dietary changes can ‎be prescribed by your doctor or a ‎dietician.‎

Dialysis or renal transplantation is required only in patients with end stage renal disease or patients with Chronic ‎renal disease, with rapidly progressing disease.

In case the kidneys have completely destroyed as a result of renal disease or tissue destruction ( probably genetic diseases or congenital abnormalities), the reduction in renal functions is a indication for renal transplantation.

Kidney transplantation is a life-extending procedure. The typical patient will live ten to fifteen years longer with a ‎kidney transplant than if kept on dialysis. The years of life gained is greater for younger patients. People generally ‎have more energy, a less restricted diet, and fewer complications with a kidney transplant than if they stay on ‎conventional dialysis. Ideally, a kidney transplant should be pre-emptive (as suggested by your doctors), i.e. take place before the patient begins ‎dialysis. ‎

The average lifetime for a donated kidney is ten to fifteen years. When a transplant fails, a patient may opt for a ‎second transplant, and may have to return to dialysis for some intermediary time.‎

Kidney transplants are done exceptionally well at many hospitals in India. The success rates match international ‎standards. Indian doctors have a wealth of experience in kidney transplants owing to the large number of ‎procedures done. But there is no National registry to find a Donor in India. ‎

Currently in India, Kidneys can be donated only by near relatives of the patients. Siblings of the patients (brothers ‎and sisters) usually have the best chance of being a perfect match. In cases where the donor is not a close relative, ‎Govt. permission is necessary but may or may not be given depending on the circumstances of the case. But in ‎case of blood group incompatibility, swapping of kidney between patient-donor groups is acceptable.

You might consider consulting a nephrologist for additional information and discussion of the benefit of the ‎procedure in this case can be ascertained.
