Dialysis For 75 Y O F With Chronic Illne - Creatine Is 4.3 Yet A

Dialysis for 75 y o f with chronic illne

Asked for Male, 51 Years

Creatine is 4.3 yet a nephrology specialist demanded we do dialysis for the rest of her life! ( She is admitted in ICU now. She might possibly survive from stroke!) Had I been living in the ground floor and had the financial capacity to afford it ( 15 sittings @ ~ 3k ) it would not have mattered. Also she has an amputation on her rt leg and left arm is useless & lft leg barely supports her to stand. What is the best course of action so that she can live a fit life given her illnesses, I wonder!
