Well! Yes: You can do everything while being a Nephrotic Syndrome Patient. You are immunocompromised by virtue of the fact that some of the proteins that you are spilling out in urine can be important part of your immune system. Also the Meds to keep the disease in control ( ie immune modulators and steroids) do cause further immune compromise. Increase risk of HCV with tattoos
