What Happens If A Person With ESRD Doesn’t Take Dialysis

When a person have end stage renal disease(ESRD), it means that the kidneys are no longer functioning properly or doing the vital job of filtering out and disposing of wastes. Well, what will happen if a person ESRD doesn’t take dialysis?

If the kidneys fail, toxins and wastes remain in the blood and after a short period of time, wastes and toxins may increase in the blood. Besides, patients with kidney failure have no urine volume, which means not only the wastes will not be disposed of, but also fluid will build up in the body.

Because of this, dialysis is necessary. Dialysis plays a role in filtering out and disposing of wastes and toxins in the body. Although dialysis does not work as well as kidneys do in this regard, it is still necessary to keep people alive.

If a person with ESRD does not take dialysis, what will happen?

1. Nausea and vomiting

A person with end stage renal disease usually get sick, vomiting, and have diarrhea. This is because the body is responding to the toxins that have entered out system and is trying to disposing of them. And the body will respond by vomiting and perhaps diarrhea in an attempt to get rid of the build up of waste. Most people can not eat too much, since they may become ill after eating. Also, without dialysis, vomiting and nausea can not get rid of all the wastes accumulating in their system. In this condition, wastes and fluids will continue to pile up, because they have no way of being disposed of.

2. Swelling

Patients without dialysis in end stage renal disease will begin to swell from the retention of fluids, and will be disposed by the toxins. The fluids have nowhere to go, so they will begin to fill parts of the body such as the lungs.

Dialysis is still necessary for a kidney disease patient, especially End Stage Kidney Disease. Without dialysis, toxins and wastes will continue to build up in the blood and exacerbate medical conditions. However, if you want to get rid of dialysis, Chinese Medicine Treatment like Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, Acupuncture, Immunotherapy, Tai Chi, Gua Sha and Blood Polluted Therapy, etc, helps improve kidney function and make you avoid dialysis.
