Should I Start Dialysis with Creatinine 6.2 and GFR 10%

Both High Creatinine Level and GFR are the standards of Kidney Dialysis. In Kidney Failure, majority patients will be suggested take dialysis. For High Creatinine Level 6.2 and GFR 10%, should patients start dialysis?

However, many patients do not want to begin dialysis for fear of developing dependence on it or can not afford the cost of maintenance dialysis. If ESRD patients with GFR of 10 or less want to prolong life without dialysis, it is recommended that a dietitian should be consulted to design a proper diet plan according to the patients’ illness conditions. Ketosteril and proper diets can much slow down illness progression, protect kidney functions and reduce strain to the kidneys, liver and heart.

If you have no serious symptom or complication, such as hyperkalemia, you have no necessity to take dialysis despite you have creatinine 6.2 and GFR 10%.
